One of the critically endangered captive Mexican gray wolves ("named" F810) at the Wolf Conservation Center in South Salem, NY cautiously maneuvers through the snow. The Mexican gray wolf (Canis lupus baileyi) is the southernmost and most genetically distinct subspecies of the North American gray wolf. From prehistoric to fairly recent times, the Mexican wolf, or lobo, ranged from central and northern Mexico to western Texas, southern New Mexico, and central Arizona. Although you may not associate snow to the southwest, wild lobos are all too familiar with the white stuff.
