GRAY WOLF'S BROTHER: Despite common belief, black wolves are not their own species. Instead, they're a melanistic variant of the gray wolf and are identical in every way except for the color of their coat. Black wolves are endemic anywhere gray wolves are, including Europe, Asia, and North America. NOTABLE SYMBOL: Because of their jet black coat, a color commonly associated with evil, black wolves are traditionally regarded as vicious, malevolent, and powerful. On the contrary, these wolves are quite timid when it comes to interactions with humans and they often choose to avoid confrontation if possible.
