The Geoffroy's Cat is named after the 19th century French zoologist Etienne Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire who identified Geoffroy's Cat as a different species when he studied his work as a professor of zoology in Paris, France.

Though once abundant over much of Eurasia and North America, it inhabits a very small portion of its former range because of widespread destruction of its territory, human encroachment of its habitat, and the resulting human-species encounters that sparked broad extirpation. = Wolf

The last bit could be said about loads of animals.

Wolf?

Grey_Wolf · 01-20-2009, 12:11 PM

indeed, Earn!

Which is a medium-sized canid, which tends to be slightly larger than the dark cousin. Its pelt is coloured buff-grey. The back is darker grey than the underside, and the tail is black with a white tip. Indistinct white stripes are present on the flanks, running from elbow to hip. The boldness of the markings varies between individuals, with those of adults being better defined than those of juveniles. = Side-Striped Jackal

Count Comfect · 01-21-2009, 02:39 PM

Some sort of Jackal? Perhaps a Side-Striped one?

Grey_Wolf · 01-21-2009, 03:12 PM

Well done, CC!

U may continue.

Which is a small canid native to cold Arctic regions of the Northern Hemisphere and is common in throughout the Arctic tundra biome. = Snow fox

***Earniel*** · 01-21-2009, 05:02 PM

Snow fox! Wheee! (sorry, have just seen them in an episode of Planet Earth and it makes me giddy

)

Count Comfect · 01-21-2009, 05:14 PM

Planet Earth is amazing! And I just saw them in Life of Mammals, so I'm just as pro-snow fox.

Grey_Wolf · 01-22-2009, 12:53 AM

Well done, Earn!

U may continue.

No need to be sorry, Earn,

.

Which is a species of canid native to north and east Africa, southeastern Europe and South Asia to Burma. It is the largest of itd kind, and the only species to occur outside Africa, with 13 different subspecies being recognised. Colour: Au. = Golden Jackal

Count Comfect · 01-22-2009, 02:30 AM

It's another Jackal, isn't it?

Grey_Wolf · 01-22-2009, 12:19 PM

Indeed, CC! added clue will specify subspecies.

Count Comfect · 01-23-2009, 02:10 PM

Lemme guess...it's GOLDEN? So the Golden Jackal.

Grey_Wolf · 01-23-2009, 06:56 PM

Well done, CC!

U may continue.

Which is a feral canid which mostly lives independently from humans. It is generally thought to originate from a population of domesticated dogs, possibly at a single occasion during the Austronesian expansion into Southeast Asia. = Dingo

Count Comfect · 01-23-2009, 07:28 PM

I think that's a load of dingo's kidneys!

Grey_Wolf · 01-24-2009, 04:51 AM

Well done, CC!

U may continue.

Which was an endemic insular canid,that occurred on the Italian island of Sardinia and the French island of Corsica (the two were joined for much of the Pleistocene). It became extinct when humans began to settle on the island. An unemployed person can be on this in England. Word designating species. = Sardinian Dhole

***Earniel*** · 01-24-2009, 01:25 PM

Darn, darn, darn, I should know this. Heck, I've even been in the Levie museum, stood before the case with extinct animals, and I just can't remember any canid being among them...

Grey_Wolf · 01-25-2009, 04:19 AM

Added info - hope it helps.

Count Comfect · 01-25-2009, 11:49 AM

Well, the thing you're on is the Dole...does that help Earniel? Because I don't know where to go from there.
