Not all breeds are but the red wolf is. Did you know that wolves were once on the endangered list, but for now they are not.

Red wolves are rare wild dogs and are in captivity. A few are now in the wild.

Overall, the gray wolf is listed as a species of least concern. However, some subspecies, such as the Mexican wolf and the red wolf, are endangered.
