I made this just to raise awareness about a certain endangered wolf. The El Lobo, or The Mexican Gray Wolf. Here are some fun facts about them I pulled from a site:

Uno: You can't name a North American mammal that's more endangered than the Mexican gray wolf. There isn't one.
Dos: Right now, there are only about 50 Mexican gray wolves in the wild and about 300 in captivity. Widespread trapping and poisoning in the early to mid 1900s nearly made them extinct.
Tres: Mexican wolves live in the mountain forests and grasslands in remote areas of Arizona and New Mexico. At one time, they also lived in Mexico, but there hasn’t been a wild Mexican lobo sighted south of the border since 1980.
Cautro: Guess what? Mexican gray wolves are not totally gray. Their fur is a mix of gray, rust, black and buff, a color pretty close to vanilla ice cream.
Cinco: The Mexican wolf weighs between 50 and 85 pounds, which is a little more than half the size of its northern cousin, the North American gray wolf and about the size of a German shepherd or Labrador retriever. It lives to the ripe, old age of 10.
