^^ Yeah I know what you want.
My point was just about wolfs and the idea of the timber wolf has different fur.
They all look alike and you have black wolfs in Asia as.
I will tell you in a few seconds some positive news - but first wolfs, as I started to counter misconceptions.
We do not run anymore on the idea that dogs are domestic wolfs. A wolf and a dog are like a donkey and a horse.
The wild version of your domestic dogs are wild-dogs, but not wolfs. Wolfs communicate different, click different and behave different.
A watch-wolf or sheep-wolf - would work totally different. There are similarties -but the reason why a sheep-dog works - is because these guys are not the same animals.
If they would be - they would understand the sheep-dog and kill it everytime - as one dog can not take on a wolf pack. Wolfs go even in villages and kill dogs. They are totally capable of doing so - but 9 out 10 not if the dog is protecting a herd.
The big difference is that the dog does not goes into the fight. As wolfs would do this. And that confuses the wolfs. As it talks wolf but does not do what a wolf would do.
WHILE if you take a wolf as sheep-wolf - it would go always all in. You do not want a dog/wolf that goes for fights. It should prevent fights. That is their main purpose. To stop the predator without taking any harm.
And that category they do there - that is made up. You could target it in multiple ways. Like that American wolfs are actually Chinese wolfs.
And that they are the same animal you can see on the US. All US-wolfs are former Canadians.
Germany is on the height of southern Canada. Spain is on the height of the US.
You can take with no problem a wolf from Poland and bring it to Spain.
The only reason why Spanish wolfs seem to behave different - is because of the envoirement. But they do the same stuff all wolfs do.
That is why wolfs are so far spread. And you see again the difference to dogs. All wild-dogs have extremly problems to adjust.
Again - that is because dogs are more social, less selfish and much more braver than wolfs. That results into that they have always packs.
Wolf packs are like a bunch of individuals compared to dog-packs. This is why wild-dogs always go for big game. Wolfs do not. The main deit of wolfs is small game. They only go onto big game - IF they do not find enough small prey.
This is why dogs are compared to wolfs better pack-hunters. If you look up dholes - that guys have a strategy to hunt prey in water.
Compare that to wolfs.
"The deer is in the water, what do we do know?"
"I have no clue, I have not seen that coming. Somebody going in?"
"Into the water?! - I am no otter. You go!"
"I do not go. Let's wait here. It has to come out."
Before they are done thinking about it - a dog has already brought the meal back home.
Wolfs are only smarter than dogs, as they adapt so fast - and even imitate very fast. Dogs (in average) do not start howling if a wolf is around - but wolfs start very fast barking. It can be very funny - because the dog barks the wolfs joins in - and goes: Yes, we are pack. We do the same thing! Bark, bark and - Ahooo.
And the moment it starts howling the dog goes: what? What is this? This I do not understand. Can somebody translate, please?
It is no rule - but on thtat you can see how fast wolfs can imitate.
Point is: We do not run on that anymore. Latest science says (we got genetics now - everybody goes genetics) that both come from different wolfs.
You can mix them. Of course that happened. BUT - your dogs at home are no domestic versions of a gray wolf.
So after the long read and final word to wolfs.
My sister (totally on your side: This game has not enough wolfs - and if she does not get deer and polar-wolfs she declared she will write a hate mail to Frontier (what I do not support, but in case that should happen - I have to take her side: Sorry in advance) - found out that the wolfs seem to have no albino version as they come in different furs. She is running now her wolf-project to breed specific fur colors.
She told me as well that the zebras have different stripes and assumes that Frontier did not put an albino version in (so far I know - I have not seen on)
as the people can breed them themselves.
So you actually have all that different fur colors in the game.
And poor Urufu who sees is thread high-jacked. Sorry.
I help you out: I say: Wolverine
The wolverine is the biggest hunter of the north that is the first to go if humans spread. Wolverines are pine-forest hunters - and once lived down to Romania. The reason why they are now only in the north - is because of us. Got that told by a wolverine expert - I do not know wolverines.
And - I say Sorraia. The Sorraia is the only wild horse (and you have to take that with a grain of salt) - we do have left in Europe.
The problem on that Portuguese horse is - that we can not frame it. It is to different from remaining wild horses but on the other hand shows all features of a none domestic animal. So if we do have one real wild-horse left - chances are extremly hight that this is the Sorraia.
There are only two herds left. One in Portugal, one in Germany. It is very interesting and very controversial if you are into horses.
And two endemic species (more or less) to Europe - are the European mink and beaver. Totally different mink. But I do not think they will do such small stuff. But there are many otter fans. Who knows.
Anyways - are we good, Urufu? As I could name you some - not so popular - more animals of the north - but they are not local to Europe.
The Altai Wapiti f.e. the Asians have wapitis, too. Not many do know this in the west. We had them in Europe too - but long extinct.
Like the European big-cat (very likely a leopard) - that is something not so popular as well. But up to the iron-age- people in Europe pictured a big-cat.
And we are not talking Spain here - we are talking up to Denmark. It is very likely a leopard - because leopards (like dogs) have problems to adjust in the north. In the south (India, Africa) - people do know this - they live even close to cities. But in the north - that are all that threatend leopard species.
So enough. Just wanted to tell you - that you can breed the fur of the wolfs in multiple ways and make your custom wolf and that seems to be intended.
And I will not derail that thread further with wolfs. Wolfs are done now, from my side. ^^ Sorry, Urufu, again. Hope I made up for this.
Have fun.
I hope they add this at some point - (in my eyes) they are different from each other.![[VR] Deggial](https://d2aefvhu2f0gi9.cloudfront.net/data/avatars/m/47/47252.jpg?1553527110){kind=avatar}
... the grey wolf, is the ancestor for many of our common dog breeds... they still are from different continents and they mingle with each other when they can, creating other races... but that goes much to far and has nothing to do with this zoo game.
