Canis lupus arabs

Arabian wolves are a medium-sized wolves and wolfdogs that currently lives in pockets of the Arabian peninsula. Modern studies suggest that they are more related to Eurasian wolves than Indian wolves, and this is likely as a result of intermixing with dogs. The scientists are concerned that the female wolves and wolfdogs readily breed with male dogs. They say that the wolfdog hybrids might not acclimate to desert life, but this is most likely somewhat false. Dogs have lived in deserts, and they learn from their mother wolf or wolfdog that has survived in the desert. They also note that it is only suspicions and speculation, and not well researched on their part. However, they have considered an option for solving the wolfdog problem by sterilizing the pups of the female wolves or wolfdogs that happen to look more dog than wolf. However, they did not finalize their decision in the report.
