The most ancient Indian wolf is set to be a new species
From TheHindu.com:
The discreet, charismatic denizen of scrubland and grasslands, the Indian wolf (Canis lupus pallipes), whose population has dwindled to just around 3,000 individuals in India and Pakistan, is likely to be classified as a new species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), which would take the number of wolf species in the world to eight.
