I think red wolves should be bred with eastern canadian wolves as they are their closest relitive.

Ya, I agree (also...with cocounts too xD).
Iberian wolves- really beautiful... I'd probably learn more about them.

Can't do much about it, for better or for worse, we're here.

Now, going onto a different subject, what do you all think about the Grey wolves being bred with coyotes and being falsely labeled as Red Wolves? I find it quite sad that most red wolves are mixes that are considered pure Reds.

Oi...let's not get onto that topic and pretend we did...

We're just trying to find some legit topic of conversation that will hold up for longer than a page and won't collapse the next time someone comes in squealing about wolf puppies.

Letsee... -Googles for potential wolf discussions that aren't all OMG HUNTERS ARE EVIL-
Wolves rub their- no, let's not get into that.
What do you think about the threats of the Ethiopian wolf? Habitat loss, and the fact that they normally live in the mountains and that some of that is becoming farmland. And hybridization of the Ethiopian Wolf and the Domestic Dog pose a threat to their genes.

I thought I read on Wikipedia, or somewhere, that black wolves' fur color is actually a result of interbreeding with the domestic dog.

That's interesting. What about white wolves, not arctic?
Most of my pets are strongly Music themed. If any names seem strange to you, this will be why.

Yes, I think it's true that the black wolves get their fur from interbreeding with dogs. White wolves' fur is natural, I believe.

Black fur- I saw one documentary and there lector says something like this: "It's natural that in the wolf family both-gray and black-pups are born" (sorry, I'm not english, so I can't translate exactly how it sounds), but that means that black fur-color mutation is allowed, I think. And remember that wolves were first, then dogs, so if there are black dogs, wolves can be black in natural too.
And white- ya, it's purely natural that wolves can be white. And it isn't for sure mix with dogs.
