Coywolf. A coywolf is a canid hybrid descended from coyotes (Canis latrans), eastern wolves (Canis lycaon), gray wolves (Canis lupus), and dogs (Canis familiaris). All of these species are members of the genus Canis with 78 chromosomes; they therefore can interbreed. [1] One genetic study indicates that these species genetically diverged ...
The eastern coyote is a wild North American canine hybrid with both coyote and wolf parentage. The hybridization likely first occurred in the Great Lakes region, as western coyotes moved east. It was first noticed during the early 1930s to the late 1940s, and likely originated in the aftermath of the extirpation of the gray wolf and eastern ...
The eastern wolf (Canis lycaon[5] or Canis lupus lycaon[6][7]), also known as the timber wolf, [8] Algonquin wolf and eastern timber wolf, [9] is a canine of debated taxonomy native to the Great Lakes region and southeastern Canada. It is considered to be either a unique subspecies of gray wolf or red wolf or a separate species from both. [10]
Pleistocene wolf. During the Pleistocene, wolves were widely distributed across the Northern Hemisphere. [1] Some Pleistocene wolves, such as Beringian wolves and those from Japan, exhibited large body size in comparison to modern gray wolf populations. [2][3] Genetic analysis of the remains of Late Pleistocene wolves suggest that across their ...
It’s a coyote-wolf hybrid? The answer is “highly unlikely,” wildlife experts say after Burr Ridge police warned residents of possible “coywolf” sightings last week in the southwest suburb.
The Pathoplasty Model: This model proposes that premorbid personality traits impact the expression, course, severity, and/or treatment response of a mental disorder. [192] [198] [80] An example of this relationship would be a heightened likelihood of committing suicide in a depressed individual who also has low levels of constraint. [198]
The domestic dog (Canis familiaris) is a domesticated species of the gray wolf (Canis lupus), along with the dingo (Canis lupus dingo). Therefore, crosses between these species are biologically unremarkable and not a hybridization in the same sense as an interbreeding between different species of Canidae. Wolves are different from domestic dogs ...
Narrative identity. The theory of narrative identity postulates that individuals form an identity by integrating their life experiences into an internalized, evolving story of the self that provides the individual with a sense of unity and purpose in life. [1] This life narrative integrates one's reconstructed past, perceived present, and ...
