How many wolves are there world wide?

Answer 1

In 10,00 to 20,00 the minimum world wolf population was estimated at 150,000.

There are now about,

150,000 grey wolves, 500 Abyssinian Wolves, and 250 Red Wolves, world wide that is.

Answer 2

A 2002 estimate places the number of gray wolves worldwide at about 300,000.

Reference.com says that about 5,000 live in the lower 48 states of the United States, while between 7,000 and 11,000 live in Alaska.

The gray wolf is considered an IUCN Species of Least Concern.

The red wolf is considered critically endangered.

Answer 3

There are three species of wolves in the world - the grey wolf (Canis lupus), the red wolf (Canis rufus) and the Ethiopian wolf ((also known as Abyssian wolf, Ethipioan JAckle, and Simain fox))(Canis simensis).

The grey wolf, of which there are numerous subspecies, is found across North America and Eurasia. The red wolf is found in the eastern United States, around North Carolina. The Ethiopian wolf is found only in Ethiopia, hence the name. So in the United States there are two wolf species, the grey wolf and the red wolf.

Answer 4

technically, there are only 2 actual breeds -Gray wolf and red wolf-

but there are many subspecies such as:

-ethiopian (also abyssian)

-Manned wolf (not actually a wolf!)

-timber wolf (a gray wolf, depends on where it lives to be called a timber wolf)

-Arctic wolf (also a gray wolf, it's different then the timber because it lives in the arctic, and it's fur is normally thicker and more transparent))

-Japenese wolf (extinct)

-Dire wolf (extinct)

-Turukhan Wolf,

-Keni wolf (gray wolf!)

-Newfoundland Wolf

- Steppe Wolf

-Bernard's Wolf

-Dingo

-Mogollon Mountain Wolf

and there are still more, tose are just what I can list off my head at the same time

Answer 5

Well it depends entirely on your belief really, as it is obviously not a highly documented subject, you may find stories here and there about certain 'wolf-men' and the like, however it would be nigh impossible to try and find out accurately. If I had to take a guess I'd say about 36 or so. though I personally dont believe in them, so according to my personal belief, none

Answer 6

There is but a single species of true wolf - Canis lupus. However, there are a number of subspecies. One subspecies, the red wolf, was once thought to be a distinct species but is now considered to be a subspecies. There are a few other animals called wolves, such as the Ethiopian wolf and the maned wolf. However, these are wolves in name only and not true wolves. For a list of subspecies, click on this link.
