I just found a beautiful red fox in my front yard. It was stretched out as if sleeping on the grass: dead and probably hit by a car, sad.
It really was a lovely animal except for one thing, in comparison to a similar sized dog its mouth was full of sharp teeth and the muzzle gave the impression of being more feral. I think a live wolverine's mouth would be even scarier. Maybe a muzzle with a red-cross on it over the wolverine's mouth would make it less terrifying to a trapped victim.
Dogs have teeth smaller than similar wild canine species. The suggestion is that there has been (human driven) selective evolutionary pressure during the 20,000 years or so of dogs domestication to make them more compatible with life around humans. [1]
