THE EXTINCTION OF JAPANESE WOLF

This is Japanese wolf that became extinct.




This is smaller descendants of grey olvs and
they were plentiful in the country of Japan.

They have a small body than other kinds of wolves which live in except Japan 
however they have a really strong leg strength.
Also their fur change the colour by each season because 
they have to adapt to surroundings


Their population began to decrease in 1732, when rabbits

 first reported in Kyushu and Shikoku,was introduced to the area they inhabited. 

It affected different wolf populations all through the nineteenth century.
 Most argue that it was humans that brought the virus to Japan, 
trying to kill the wolves on purpose.
 It is also believed that local domestic dogs in the regions may 
have transported the disease.
 The last known specimen died in 1905, in Nara prefecture.

The definition of "extinction" is that the animal can't be seen for 50 years
so Japanese Wolf became extinct.

As you know, almost reason of extinct is because of human.

Revival of extinct animal is impossible but we can make an effort
t not to wipe endangered species exterminate and also 
we mustn't have a bad effect on all living things on the Earth 
because of the selfish human reasons.
