Is this a wolf skull?

Hi everybody! I found this fossil online, and it the description says "wolf skull, of a young individual. Found near the remains of a mammoth" 

Can you tell if it is a wolf skull, and which species it is? 

What can you tell about the pictures?

It's a canid but I don't know more than that, as I am not skilled in this matter (in other words I can't tell a dog skull from a dire wolf skull). @Harry Pristis may be able to help.

I agree it's a modern canid skull.
