According to wikipedia, coydogs are male coyote/female dog crosses and dogotes are the offspring of female coyotes/male dogs. I've never actually heard the latter term used before.

I support it being a valid subspecies, your first link discusses that they seem to marginalise grey wolves. It is possible that the red wolf is the original american wolf, and that grey wolves evolved from them.

That's awesome, I'd only seen it referenced in articles before.

Lots of times they do, but as with anything, things can happen!

Wolf/dog and coyote/dog crosses can sometimes happen in the wild too. The wild parents are usually loners, and I suppose they'll take any chance to get their DNA into the next generation. From a biological standpoint it's better than leaving behind no offspring at all.

yeah. someone once, for some reasion told me that dogs eat their hybreed offspring 0_o.
but cross breeding does seem to be why our coyotes are colorfull.

Sometimes coyotes are referred to as "brush wolves", heh. Don't think I've ever heard of a yellow wolf though.

They are referred to as brush wolves so people can sell them for more money.

Yeah, I figured as much... Or so that the listing pops up when people search for real wolves.

Maybe one of his parents was a long haired German shepherd or a Belgian shepherd? He's still growing into his adult coat :>

While reading some scientific articles for my Natural Resources something or other class (lol, all I know is NRPI 103...never bothered to remember the full title) term paper I remember reading an article that discussed the possibility that red wolves were just coyote-wolf hybrids (it referred to other articles, maybe even the ones you have cited here), but then it referred to other ones that disproved it. As a matter of fact, there was even evidence that suggested red wolves were actually the STOCK of modern day coyote and grey wolf populations.
So, I can't say I technically believe this stamp....lol. Either way, if the species was doing fine and had enough individuals (thousands...they had some number in the high thousands before settlers came in and ruined their habitat) that were similar or basically identical as a species then they deserve to be protected. Man has caused extinction rates to go from (assuming there are 10,000,000 different species) ~5 species going extinct per year to ~27,000 a year....so yeah...we should protect all we can! lol We kinda f*ed up.

We truly have done a world of damage...

that fact that you have proof makes this even better

I have a couple of other links too if anybody feels like arguing. Of course, they're still viewed as a separate species and as such are protected for being "endangered".
I mean, just look at them. They look like overgrown coyotes.

I don't think that's up to us, we're the ones that fucked everything up in the first place.
I don't agree with the reintroduction program entirely, but since when did we become GOD in determining what species could live or die to extinction. We are arrogance at our best.

It seems wrong about which thing?
That we messed it up? Of course that's wrong
That we think we're God? That's MORE than wrong.
