Is it all salmon species? I stumble upon dead salmon after spawning all the time during field work and I've never seen one that looks like that. They usually look like the top photo.

This is just a pink salmon aka a humpy. Other species of salmon get the big overbite - called a kipe and big doglike teeth and usually more red coloration.
