Newfoundland wolf (SciiFii)

The Newfoundland wolf (Canis lupus beothucus) is a subspecies of gray wolf native to the island of Newfoundland off the east coast of Canada. The Newfoundland wolf was once extinct since 1930 due to hunting, trapping, and predator control, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to Newfoundland. The Newfoundland wolf is a medium-sized, slender-skulled wolf with a white pelt, though melanists also occurs. In comparison to its mainland relatives it bears a striking difference in its internal accessory cusp angles allowing for distinction between subspecies. The Newfoundland wolf is a carnivore, like other gray wolf subspecies. They mainly feed on deer (caribou, mule deer, etc), rodents, etc. The conservation status of the Newfoundland wolf is Vulnerable due to habitat loss and minor poaching, but conservationists are working to protect the Newfoundland wolf.
