In order to be considered a wolf, the animal MUST be in the genus "CANIS" such as the four above are.This is why the maned wolf is not a wolf. Their names are "Chrysocyon brachyurus." And the now extinct Tasmanian wolf (also known as the Tasmanian tiger) is "Thylacinus cynocephalus."Of course there are many different subspecies inside of a species. The gray wolf has 15 different subspecies (mexican, arctic, dog, red, alaskan, etc.) for example.
