ARCTIC Identification of Pups and Yearling Wolves by Dentine Width in the Canine
ABSTRACT. One hundred and thirty-nine wolf (Canis lupus) skulls and mandibles were collected from hunters and trappers of northern Quebec and Labrador during the winters of 1980-81 through 1983-84. The maximum width of the dentine-cementum wall in olf canine teeth was used to separate pups killed la...
