Naturally-occurring tooth wear, tooth fracture, and cranial injuries in large carnivores from Zambia
Determining the incidence and causes of craniodental damage in wild carnivores is often constrained by limited access to specimens with associated ecological data, such as prey type and abundance. We assessed dental condition and cranial injuries in lion, leopard, and spotted hyena in relation to pr...
