Summary

This dataset consists of 33 PNG image files, one for each grey wolf (Canis lupus) tooth included in the Burtt et al. study "Rapid response: dietary shifts by grey wolves in response to palaeoclimatic variations during the last glaciation". Each PNG file contains two panels: a greyscale photosimulation of the analysed occlusal enamel surface and a colour-rendered three-dimensional (3D) surface reconstruction of the same scanned area. The images document the occlusal wear facets from which dental microwear texture analysis (DMTA) data were collected and are identified by museum specimen catalogue number. These files provide a permanent visual record of the analysed surfaces and complement the archived quantitative DMTA dataset deposited separately.
