Canine Teeth.
Photography by © (Kieron Nelson). The long canine teeth are also important, in that they hold and subdue the prey. Capable of delivering up to 10,000 kPa (1450 lbf/in²) of pressure, a wolf’s teeth are its main weapons as well as its primary tools. This is roughly twice the pressure that a domestic dog of similar size can deliver. The dentition of grey wolves is better suited to bone crushing than those of other modern canids, though it is not as specialised as that found in hyenas. #wildlife #grey #canine_teeth #yawn #ontario_canada #wolf #timber_wolf #open_mouth
