Canis lupus pallipes

The Indian Wolf. Its taxonomic recognition was detailed and founded by Reginald Pocock. They are noted as being smaller than the Wooly Wolf, with shorter fur, and its color phases. https://archive.org/details/PocockMammalia2/page/n105/mode/2up This would probably have been the wolf species featured in the Jungle Book, though they may have been based off of European wolves as well. According to Wikipedia its range extends from the southern black sea to India.https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e1/Indian_wolf_%28Canis_lupus_pallipes%29_distribution.png https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subspecies_of_Canis_lupus#/media/File:Original_distribution_of_gray_wolf_(canis_lupus)_subspecies-en.png

These are specific to "wolf" rather than being an exact translation to the specific name of the subspecies. The idea is that the word wolf, though it could have been borrowed from other areas, was nonetheless applied to the local wolves. These local wolves would in modern times be considered to belong to this subspecies. (Presuming that the subspecies lived in all of these areas at the time).
