List of canids. 10 of the 13 extant canid genera left-to-right, top-to-bottom: Canis, Cuon, Lycaon, Cerdocyon, Chrysocyon, Speothos, Vulpes, Nyctereutes, Otocyon, and Urocyon. Canidae is a family of mammals in the order Carnivora, which includes domestic dogs, wolves, coyotes, foxes, jackals, dingoes, and many other extant and ...
Taxonomy[edit] See also: List of canids. In the history of the carnivores, the family Canidae is represented by the two extinct subfamilies designated as Hesperocyoninae and Borophaginae, and the extant subfamily Caninae. [5] This subfamily includes all living canids and their most recent fossil relatives. [1]
Canines, also called canids, include foxes, wolves, jackals, and other members of the dog family (Canidae). They are found throughout the world and tend to be slender long-legged animals with long muzzles, bushy tails, and erect pointed ears. This is a list of canines ordered alphabetically by.

The 13 extant genera and 37 species of Caninae are primarily split into two tribes: Canini, which includes 11 genera and 19 species, comprising the wolf-like Canina subtribe and the South American Cerdocyonina subtribe; and Vulpini, the fox-like canids, comprising 3 genera and 15 species.
This family is represented by 14 genera and 34 species. Canids are widely distributed, occurring on all continents except Antarctica. It is the only member of the Order Carnivora that it represented in Australia ( Canis familiaris dingo, the dingo; this species is thought to have been introduced by humans during prehistoric times).
The bush dog, maned wolf, Sechura fox, short-eared dog, and island fox are listed as Near Threatened. Others are rare and even declining, while many wild canids are too common for their own good, and thus are involved in major wildlife management issues (such as disease transmission, predation on livestock, sport hunting, fur trade). All CSG ...
The genus Canis ( Carl Linnaeus, 1758) was published in the 10th edition of Systema Naturae [2] and included the dog-like carnivores: the domestic dog, wolves, coyotes and jackals. All species within Canis are phylogenetically closely related with 78 chromosomes and can potentially interbreed. [4] In 1926, the International Commission on ...
