Abstract

Abstract Wildlife biologists believe the red wolf (Canis rufus) is limited in the wild to the Red Wolf Recovery Experimental Population Area on the Albemarle Peninsula, North Carolina. Several black-and-white photos from trail cameras placed on the Environmental Studies Area of East Texas Baptist University in Marshall, Texas, indicate the presence of a large canid possessing wolf-like characters. Two pictures, in particular, indicate the wolf-like characters with estimated morphometrics at the upper range reported for body length, shoulder height, width of head, and width of nose pad. Hair samples and tracks from this location indicate the presence of Canis rufus in east Texas.

德克萨斯州东部的红狼(canis rufus)

摘要野生动物生物学家认为，红狼（Canis rufus）在野外仅限于北卡罗来纳州阿尔伯马尔半岛的红狼恢复实验种群区。位于得克萨斯州马歇尔市的东得克萨斯浸礼会大学环境研究区的跟踪摄像机拍摄的几张黑白照片显示，有一只大型犬科动物拥有类似狼的特征。特别是，有两张照片显示了狼状特征，估计的形态计量学在体长、肩高、头部宽度和鼻垫宽度的上限。该地点的毛发样本和痕迹表明，德克萨斯州东部存在着鲁夫犬。

期刊介绍： The Southwestern Naturalist (a publication of the Southwestern Association of Naturalists since 1953) is an international journal (published quarterly) that reports original and significant research in any field of natural history. This journal promotes the study of plants and animals (living and fossil) in the multinational region that includes the southwestern United States, Mexico, and Central America. Appropriate submission of manuscripts may come from studies conducted in the countries of focus or in regions outside this area that report significant findings relating to biota occurring in the southwestern United States, Mexico, and Central America. Publication is in English, and manuscripts may be feature articles or notes. Feature articles communicate results of completed scientific investigations, while notes are reserved for short communications (e.g., behavioral observations, range extensions, and other important findings that do not in themselves constitute a comprehensive study). All manuscripts (feature articles and notes) require an abstract in both English and Spanish.
