Hi Fiona an all,
I took measurements of some 50 wolf and 25 dog upper canines in order to determine if a Magdalenian find (15'000 calBP) was one of the oldest dogs or rather a wolf. (It was a dog). I will send you the table with the measurements off-list. Anybody else interested, please also off-list to me.
Cheers,
Vern.

Hello Zooarcher's
Does anyone have any metrical data for the size of Canis lupus lupus (wolf) canine teeth vs domestic dog?
Thank you.
Fiona
