  Falkland Island Fox - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Falkland Island Fox (Dusicyon australis, formerly named Canis antarcticus), also known as the Warrah and occasionally as the Falkland Island Wolf or Antarctic Wolf and by Argentine writers as the Malvinas Zorro, was the only native land mammal of the Falkland Islands.
This endemic canid became extinct in 1876, the only known canid to have gone extinct in historical times.
The most closely related species to the monotypic genus Dusicyon among southern-hemisphere foxes is Pseudalopex griseus, the culpeo or Patagonian fox.

Others have maintained that the Dusicyon name must be reserved exclusively for this species is left Pseudalopex for the near species, and even somebody is dangerous the possibility that it was a variety next to the domestic dog (Canisfamiliaris or Canis lupusfamiliaris).
