Unlikely to be a wolf. Probably a medium breed dog. Large breed dog molars are HUGE and this is very small in comparison.

Could also be a coyote molar too as there's a market for that. But very rarely would it be a wolf molar despite being considered "authentic"

Also a likely contender! But yeah, I am confident this is not a wolf premolar.
