However, there are several extinct *canids* that were similar to wolves. Some examples include:
* Dire Wolf: A large extinct wolf species that lived in North America during the Pleistocene epoch.
* Canis lupus chanco: This subspecies of wolf, also known as the "Korean wolf," went extinct in the 20th century.
* Falkland Islands wolf: This wolf species, unique to the Falkland Islands, went extinct in the 19th century.
It's important to clarify the distinction between breeds and subspecies. While there are many different types of wolves, they are all members of the same species (Canis lupus) and are not considered "breeds" like dogs.
