The Arctic wolf (Canis Lupus Arctos), also known as the Melville island wolf, is a possibly endangered subspecies of the gray wolf native to the Canadian arctic, Alaska, and Greenland as well as Iceland and Northern Scotland. They are the same size as Greenland (Canis Lupus Orion), English (Canis Lupus Lupus), Hokkaido (Canis Lupus Hattai), Tibetan (Canis Lupus Chanco), and Mexican wolves (Canis Lupus Baileyi). Arctic wolves and Greenland wolves both live in Greenland and are white and subspecies of the gray wolf and they are also endangered. Many gray wolves are endangered and extinct like Hokkaido, Egyptian, Red, Greenland, Tibetan, Mexican, Great Plains, Japanese, Mogollon mountain, Newfoundland, Eastern timber, Kenai peninsula, Texas, English, Arabian, Bernard's, Vancouver island, Florida black, Cascade mountain, Gergory's, Southern Rocky mountain, Indian, Italian, Labrador, and Austro- Hungarian wolves. The wolf reintroduction to Scotland starts in 2016! It is pretty similar to the great plains wolf (Canis Lupus Nubilis). In Greenland, they were first studied in 1899 and 1939.
