  1. Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA) p values comparing dog tooth marks with wolves and foxes. Results include analysis of metric variables derived from tooth score cross sections (including as well as excluding the variable Opening Angle (OA)), as well as the geometric morphometric variations in morphology of tooth score cross sections and entire tooth pit morphologies in both form and shape space.
