The maned wolf (Chrysocyon brachyurus) is the largest canid of South America. Its markings resemble those of foxes, but it is not a fox, nor is it a wolf, as it is not closely related to other canids. It is the only species in the genus Chrysocyon (meaning "golden dog"). Order: Carnivora, Family: Canidae, Genus: Chrysocyon, Species: Chrysocyon brachyurus (Illiger, 1815), Synonyms: Canis brachyurus, C. campestris, C. isodactylus, C. jubatus, Vulpes cancrosa
