Which animal have canine teeth?

All animals' teeth depend on what they eat, because different teeth have different functions. I speak for mammals here.All mammals have canine teeth. 'Canine' means dog, so these are essentially dog teeth. They are so named because dogs are members of the family Canidae, one of the dominant carnivorous families. All carnivores (meat eaters) and most omnivores (eat meat and plants) have large, prominent, well-developed canine teeth, to rip, tear and cut meat. Big cats, bears, and stoats/weasels etc. also have large canine teeth.All mammals have canines, but in herbivores, they are small and often flattened. Humans have canine teeth. Even horses have canine teeth - the small bony projection in the middle of the diastema is called a wolf tooth, and it was often believed that knocking out the wolf tooth improved a 'bad doer' or young horse that did not gain weight, was weak or scraggly.
