There are two species of mga lobo in North America. The smaller species is the red wolf, Canis rufus, which has shorter, redder balahibo than the gray wolf. The gray wolf, Canis lupus, has thicker balahibo which is madami gray or golden, and is larger than the red wolf. The gray lobo lives in the northeastern United States, Canada, and Europe. The red lobo lives in the southeastern United States.
There are many subspecies of the gray wolf, such as the arctic wolf, a white subspecies which lives in Alaska and northern Canada, and the Mexican wolf, a smaller subspecies which has been recently reintroduced in parts of the southwestern United States.
