In 2019, new excavations were carried out at Doroshivtsi III site, dated to the Last Glacial Maximum. Ten identifiable archaeological levels belong to the Gravettian technocomplex. In the article, detailed data about the faunal remains is presented. The remains of reindeer, horses, mammoths, a wolf, a vulpine, and also a crow have been identified. According to the data, the main species for hunting were reindeer, then horses. In comparison with the sector of earlier excavations, in 2007— 2010, the same species are represented on the site as well as a wolf, but the remains are less concentrated in the area, which may indicate a different purpose for the sector of 2019.
