One-eyed coyote skull. Unlike the other one-eyed lad, this one looks like they had this issue since birth or early on in life. The left zygomatic is completely warped and the top P4 is underneath the bottom M1. The left side of the mandible is also underdeveloped.
Though this is speculative, this could have been due to the same issue that causes wry mouth, malpositioning of the fetus in the mother's uterus. Coyotes have larger litters in areas they’re more regularly hunted so it’s possible this one may have been squished :<
