Talk:Wolfhound

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Broke up into two sub-lists

Since not all wolfhounds were bred to hunt wolves (some are called that because they are wolf-dog hybrids) I broke it up. I noticed that the Wolfdog entry says that many people prefer that term over wolf hybrid or wolf-dog hybrid because a hybrids are crosses of two different species, while dogs and wolves are in the same species. According to the Hybrid entry this is false. It reads "Hybrids between different species within the same genus are sometimes known as interspecific hybrids or crosses. Hybrids between different sub-species within a species are known as intra-specific hybrids. Hybrids between different genera are sometimes known as intergeneric hybrids." I will look into correcting that if I get a chance to first verify it. Bigdoglover 06:09, 2 June 2006 (UTC)
