Red Wolf (Canis rufus)
The Red Wolf (Canis rufus) is a mammal of the order carnivora. It is one of the rarest canid species and is one of the most endangered animals in the world. It once roamed throughout the Southeastern United States. Aggressive predator control programs, hunting and agriculturalization have combined to bring the red wolf near to extinction, because it was thought to be a threat to livestock. |
