Canis simensis

Walgies live exclusively in Ethiopia. They are commonly called the Ethiopian wolf, Simian Jackal, and Simian Fox. However, they are neither wolves, nor jackals, nor foxes. Females are very picky about their mates. They do not inbreed. As a result, they avoid breeding with related walgies. If the female cannot find an unrelated male walgie, she may end up choosing a male dog instead. Ethiopian scientists are concerned about the genetics of dogs being introduced into their walgies. They have a sterilization program for hybrids. This means any hybrids found will be desexed and unable to produce young waldogs. Being Africa's most endangered predator, this could end up wasting generations of litters if the sterilization got out of hand, if the alpha female walgie cannot find a non-dog mate. Hypothetically, she could end up without any grandkids. Thus, her genes cannot continue on in the populace of walgies.
