| Also known as the Southwestern wolf or Mogollon Mountain, the Mongollon wolf was classified as the gray wolf Canis lupus mongolonensis by biologist Edward A. Goldman in 1937. It was named after the Mogollon Indians of Arizona and New Mexico. It inhabited the Mogollon Plateau region from central Arizona, east through the Mogollon Mountains in southeastern New Mexico to the Sacramento Mountains in central New Mexico. The Mogollon wolf was small to medium-sized, slightly smaller than the Texas gray wolf on average, but larger than the Mexican gray. The Mogollon Mountain wolf was driven to extinction in 1935. |
