All of the deer from this subspecies have those canines
Every animal is an opportunistic carnivore
Afghans almost hunted them to extinction
But they are rebounding now
but that's the thing, you want prime weapons like the saber tooth's canines to be kept in a fat sack so as to better protect from the weather and avoids rot more easily
just like how bears and dogs keep their large canines inside fat pockets in their mouth
You mean like that?
That's a boar
that's a tusk
it's not a tooth like a canine
it is a modded tooth
here's an interesting design take on it
plus think about it
just like a dog or bear
or a lion even
the large cannines are pointing dowards so it's much easier to protect it with a skin/fat flap rather then the upwards tusks
true, but as evidenced not a must
elephant tusks are also modified teeth btw
also @Uksio that hog is one of the worst examples of a creature with tusks since if not broken or used those tusks will grow to eventually pierce its skull and bore straight to its brain killing it
essentially auto-lobotomy
Ah, I see you are a man of culture too
Didn't expect anyone to know or care about that factoid
that's i i believe the modern take on smilodons having skin flaps to protect its teeth, it's something we see nowadays on animals and it makes sense from an evolutionary standpoint
just like dinos having feathers and fat
Most though develop a curl that does not kill them
Or have an off-kilter
and then you have dumb niggers hogs that commit suicide
Media sensationalised it by showing the few ones that did die from their own teeth
checkmate atheists
god is just an asshole
