	Falkland Islands - LoveToKnow Watches
		The Falkland Islands consist entirely, so far as is known, of the older Palaeozoic rocks, Lower Devonian or Upper Silurian, slightly metamorphosed and a good deal crumpled and distorted, in the low grounds clay slate and soft sandstone, and on the ridges hardened sandstone passing into the conspicuous white quartzites.
		The Falkland Islands are a crown colony, with a governor and executive and legislative councils.
		The Falkland Islands were first seen by Davis in the year 1592, and Sir Richard Hawkins sailed along their north shore in 1594 The claims of Amerigo Vespucci to a previous discovery are doubtful.

	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 was facilitated by the animal's tameness, as is common in insular species due to the absence of predators - trappers would lure the animal with a chunk of meat held in one hand, and kill it with a knife or stick held in the other.
		DNA analysis of museum specimens have proved rather inconclusive as to the exact relationship of this animal, some even suggesting hybridization (during the domestication process) with a relative or progenitor of the coyote; it is not known whether this would have been biologically possible.

		The gray wolf, commonly referred to as tundra wolf or timber wolf, is the largest of all wild canids, although its size varies noticeably throughout its large range including Minnesota, Michigan and Montana in the United States and many remote areas of Canada, Alaska and Europe.
		Wolf numbers tend to decrease as the herds are thinned and hunting success diminishes, allowing the natural vegetation to recover, and individual herd members are better fed and able to evade the attacking wolves.
		The wolf has been persecuted, especially in the 20th century, because of its alleged threat to populations of wild ungulates that are desired for sport and subsistence hunting.

		Falkland Islands wolves on West Falkland were smaller, redder and darker, with finer fur.
		Therefore, it has been suggested that the Falkland Islands Wolf is a result of early domestication, either of a South American species that became extinct, or as the product of an early hybridisation between a form of domestic dog and an as yet unknown South American canid.
		The drawing is of the Falkland Islands Wolf specimen in the National Museum of Natural History Naturalis, in Leiden, the Netherlands.

		They included (1) a naval blockade of the Falklands, (2) the sinking of Argentine ships and/or aircraft as a signal that the task force meant business, and (3) a counter-invasion to regain control of the Falklands.20 See Appendix L for a diagram of the command relations within the task force.

		This behaviour might seem natural in pack animals like the Wolf, to whom each member is important, but Foxes do not live in packs and the fending for smaller and weaker members of the species could be regarded as simply altruistic.

		The Falkland Islands Wolf has been extinct for over a century, their classification is still being debated.
		A controversial theory lists them as a subspecies of the domestic dog, but it is highly unlikely since in addition to their morphology there is a lack of evidence for the presence of man in the archipelago in prehistoric times.

		The Canidae is a relatively samll but homogeneous family of generalized hunters, but it counts among its members such species as the wolf, fox, coyote and domestic dog.
		The wild dog family contains 35 different species, ranging in size from the tiny fennic to the little studied bush dogs of the Amazon Basin.
		Social: The wolves live in packs which may be very large and employ a method of hunting which, for the killing of large prey, relies on close cooperation.
