Volandian Wolf

=Volandian Wolf=

The Volandian Wolf, also called Volandi Veri in Asteri, is a nearly extinct subspecies of wolf native to the state of Volandia, Huitca. Over the course of about 50 years the citizens of Volandia cross-bred the Volandian Wolf with other subspecies, making it go nearly extinct. The small packs left today are one of the main reasons that Volandia's wildlife is so limited.

Appearance
Volandian Wolves have evolved lighter, brownish fur for easier camouflage in the bare landscape around Huitca's eastern coast. The back has unique patterns of darker fur, which is different for each individual. The wolves are around two meters, or 6.5 ft. long, and around 90 centimeters, or 2.9 ft. from ground to shoulder. The females tend to be more muscular and a tad bit larger.

Behavior
The Volandian wolf tends to be aggressive against any wild animal, but around people are generally docile. If they feel threatened or get attacked, they'll instantly become hostile. Normally the wolf tends to be shy, but lives in packs with an alpha female as the leader. The wolf pups is shared and cared for by all the mothers of the tribe.

Distribution, diet and origin
It was found out that the Volandian Wolf originated from the same ancient population as the Natlas Wolf, but when those wolves migrated into the rest of Ummarnu, the Volandian Wolf chose to settle in Volandia. The climate of this state resulted in the wolfs becoming particularly piscivorous. They also became great swimmers.
