The categories listed here based on taxonomy are listed so for the sake of calling out biodiversity, the local geography and the interest of the regions that wolves and other canids inhabit. Taxonomy is nomenclature – a naming system, which is a human construct and should only be taken albeit much appreciated as spatiotemporal description.
