Interesting, it appears to be a wild dog of some sort with a disease called Canine Scabies, which around here is called "Mange". It is a skin disease caused by mites. Doing a search for either of those terms should bring up plenty of information.

I have seen several animals with it5, but never this severe as in your picture, poor animal!

Hey Nags,

Mark and AB is not entirely wrong. Specially beacuse you didn't show those long claws in the first snap.Evolution wise.... Bears are more closely related to dogs.

I agree it would have been easier to identify from a pic like this:
