A few years ago, I saw some photos wild wolves that were of advanced age that had been tranquilized. Their teeth were in far worse shape than that Lycaon depicted on that link.
I can't come up with a better name than calling those animals Lycaon, even though that word is Greek for wolf.

So is rattlesnake venom!
