Are wolves faster than grey hounds?

Wolves (Canis lupus) and greyhounds (Canis lupus familiaris) are both capable of running fast, but their maximum speeds differ. Depending on the subspecies and individual animal, wolves can typically reach speeds of around 35-38 miles per hour (56-61 km/h), while greyhounds can reach speeds of up to 44-45 miles per hour (71-73 km/h) during short sprints. Therefore, greyhounds are generally faster than wolves in terms of top speed.
