Ethiopian Wolf

The Ethiopian Wolf (Canis simensis; Amharic ??? t?k?ula, 'wolf', or ?? ??? qey
qebero, 'red fox'), also known as the "Abyssinian Wolf", "Red Jackal" or
"Fox", "Simen/Simenian/Simian/Simien Fox or Jackal" and "Jedalafardaa"
("Horse's Jackal" in English), is one of the rarest and most endangered of all
canids. The numerous names reflect previous uncertainty about their taxonomic
position, but they are now thought to be related to the wolves of the genus
Canis rather than the foxes they resemble. Recent molecular evidence even
seems to indicate that the Ethiopian Wolf is a descendant of the Gray Wolf. As
a result, Ethiopian Wolves are the only wolves in sub-Saharan Africa.
