. "Cave wolf"@en . . . . . . "The megafaunal wolf was a Late Pleistocene \u2013 early Holocene hypercarnivore similar in size to a large extant gray wolf (Canis lupus). It had a shorter, broader palate with large carnassial teeth relative to its overall skull size. This adaptation allowed it to predate and scavenge on Pleistocene megafauna. They are now extinct."@en . . . . . .
