Hokkaido wolf (SciiFii)

The Hokkaido wolf (Canis lupus hattai), also known as the Ezo wolf, is a subspecies of gray wolf that inhabits coastal parts of Japan and was once extinct, but was but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii by extracting the DNA of the Hokkaido wolf and using some wolves of other subspecies such as the Eurasian wolf as surrogate mothers, before being reintroduced to the forests and mountainous areas of Japan. The Hokkaido wolf is about the same size as a coyote (Canis latrans), making it one of the world's smallest gray wolf subspecies. They mainly prey on deer, wild boars, serows and rabbits. The conservation status of the Hokkaido wolf is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts. Humans do not view Hokkaido wolves as threats and tolerate their presence, as they never attacked humans or domestic animals.
