Is there a way to tell how old an animal is by looking at its teeth?

Yes, there are several ways to determine the age of an animal by looking at their teeth. One method involves counting the number of tooth surfaces that have erupted in the mouth and comparing it to a chart that corresponds to the estimated age of the animal. Another method is to look for wear and tear on the teeth, which can be used to estimate the age of an animal. Additionally, certain species may have unique features on their teeth that can help determine their age.
