Hello,
my name is Canis Simensis, but you can call me Sim for short.Take a good look at me and at my babies. We may be the last Ethiopian Wolves you'll ever see. Our species is critically endangered. There are probably less than 400 of us adults surviving, in the highlands of Ethiopia.We are probably the most threatened canid species in the world.
Our habitat has been destroyed through expanding agricultural activities by humans. We survive in only a few mountain ranges.
Our human friends have published an Action Plan to save us, including expansion and better management of the protected areas, and the development of a captive breeding program with re-introductions to those areas where our populations are most severely depleted.
