Last i heard was it was a fox with mange (spelling)?? That one looks alittle different than other pictures that have gone around.

Thanks for posting that up Tyler.

Anyone hear of that bigfoot sighting recently? Didnt get to see the pics but apparently it was a picture taken from a game cam, they said it was a bear with mange that happened to be caught on camera on 2 feet. Shocked

The K-9 teeth are farther apart than that of a coyote.There is something about this that just don't add up.

Distance between teeth is variable in all mammals, including coyotes. The best way to id mammals is by their dental formula. This means that you count the number of each type of tooth on the top and bottom jaw. Mammal species have unique dental formulas and using that you can determine what an unknown animal is.

I have caught mangy coyotes that almost look that bad. The teeth are strange, however?
