Best Answer

No, the two species are completely different. The aardwolf is a hyena-like Carnivore, aardvarks are primarily an ant-eating species that forms an order of its own, characterised by its unusual tooth structure. The 'aard' in their names comes from the Afrikaans word 'aarde', meaning 'earth', so no way implies the two species are related.
