The Himalayan wolf (Canis himalayensis) is a carnivorous mammal native to North America, Europe and Asia.

The Himalayan wolf is a canine of debated taxonomy. It is distinguished by its genetic markers, with mitochondrial DNA indicating that it is genetically basal to the Holarctic grey wolf, genetically the same wolf as the Tibetan and Mongolian wolf, and has an association with the African wolf. — Wikipedia
