Canis pallipes pallipes

The Indian wolf (Canis lupus pallipes) is a subspecies of gray wolf that ranges from Southwest Asia to the Indian subcontinent. It is intermediate in size between the Himalayan wolf and the Arabian wolf, and lacks the former's luxuriant winter coat due to it living in warmer conditions.[3] Within this subspecies, the "Indian plains wolf" is genetically basal to all other extant Canis lupus apart from the older-lineage Himalayan wolf, with both proposed as separate species.[4][5] The Indian wolf travels in smaller packs and is less vocal than other variants of the gray wolf,[6] and has a reputation for being cunning.[7][8] The Indian wolf is one of the most endangered populations of gray wolf in the world.[9]
