Hi! just clearing up something-

My Warrah Theriotype٫ during this november٫ I awakened as a Warrah therian for one of my theriotypes٫ how? well I known the Warrah for a good amount of time٫ I always found an interest in them٫i loved learning about them I also shared traits with the Warrah٫Such as eating٫fish and also living on the coast of the Falklands٫I love being near bodies of water٫ and I felt a small connect to the wolves. So thats how :) Therians how have a an that is Extinct are called pelo-therians.

The artist drew that thing as if they thought it was gross. It looks like a sad little coyote stuffed.

This copperplate engraving of a Falkland islands wolf or warrah, titled “The Wolf Fox of Faulklands Islands,” was published in “An account of a Voyage Round the World” in 1778. [x]

The species went extinct about a hundred years later.

Cryptid of the Day: Falkland Island Wolf

Description: The Warrah, or the Falkland Island Wolf, & sometimes incorrectly called the Antarctic Wolf, went extinct in the 1880s, though soldiers stationed during the Falkland War claimed to have seen it. Cryptozoologist Dale A. Drinnon suggested they were insular Andean Wolf population

anyway I'm going to be bitter forever about colonialist extermination of the dogs of the Yahgan people, who domesticated at least one fox species (culpeo in Tierra del Fuego, definitely deliberately slaughtered by colonists) and potentially another. There's some interesting evidence that they brought warrah to the Falkland Islands, possibly as semi-domesticated animals in the same way dingoes were introduced to Australia. This would explain a whole lot about how tame and perplexingly non-aggressive warrah were to European colonists, too...

anyway I have so many questions about the behavior and domestication timescale of the Tierran del Fuego culpeo and they're never going to get answered because fucking Europeans eradicated first the dogs and then made a very effective effort at genociding the people. Fuck! What a waste! We could learn so much just by asking!

Okay so Umbro, our lead wolf in Wolvden, is going to retire in 10 days/ rollovers... I'm going to miss you so much...

At least we already decided on a replacement wolf when the time comes...

Who is Warrah! A wolf I got recently and who I think would make for a good Leader.

(Most of the pack is either too old or too young for the leader role, so we had to get a newbie. Hope it isn't too harsh for them...)

W for the oc ask

Warrah the Weaving Fleck!

They’re a friend of my OC Cigul. Or at the very least, they’re someone he knew back home before he left.

Warrah sees themself as the older and more rational Fleck compared to the whimsical Cigul. Cigul has Many Ideas and Feelings! Warrah has work to do, but they’ll be damned if they let Cigul hurt himself.

… they sometimes wonder if they could’ve done something to prevent him from leaving home, altogether.

yesterday i saw a video of someone with an accent i could not for the life of me trace and so i went to her Instagram and it said "NL" and my dumb ass first read it as "new zealand" and so i just kept thinking "is that how robin speaks??? am i so out of it that i have been mishearing kiwi accents for years???" and then halfway through the video i realized zealand doesn't start with an L and googled "nl". so anyways dutch people are also from oceania now!

BRHGUKJSVKJHJSVH OH MAN. YEAH NAH kiwis sound WAYYY different to dutch people we just. turn every vowel into U's (fush un chups) and out T's into D's or rolled R's (water=warrah) and just. slur words into mashed up sounds that take out lots of the consonants (battery=badry)

It's always fascinating to uncover the mysteries of creation and the Biblical accounts of history. In this engaging article by Andrew Sibley, the focus is on the Warrah, or Falkland Islands wolf, and its presence on these isolated islands before the arrival of the first European settlers. The conundrum? How did it cross the ocean from South America, some 500 km away? Here's a summary of the key points:

▶️ The Warrah was present on the Falkland Islands when the first European settlers arrived in the 18th and 19th centuries. These settlers were mainly British, French, and Spanish, with some gaucho farmers from South America.

▶️ Unfortunately, due to hunting and the activity of the settlers, the Warrah became extinct by 1876.

▶️ Since the time of Darwin, attempts have been made to explain how and when the Warrah arrived at the Falklands. One theory suggests an ice bridge from Patagonia at the peak of the Ice Age.

▶️ Recent analysis of mtDNA from Warrah museum exhibits showed the closest living relative to be the maned wolf, and estimated the date of divergence to be between 4.2–8.9 Ma on the evolutionary timescale. However, this seems unlikely as it contradicts the evolutionary narrative.

▶️ Another mtDNA comparison with the extinct continental relative species, Dusicyon avus, leads to an estimate for isolation from the South American common ancestor at supposedly 16 ka, correlating with the evolutionary dates for the Ice Age.

▶️ Recent archaeological evidence suggests Fuegian Indians may have arrived in the Falkland Islands centuries (approximately 1275 to 1420 AD) before the Europeans, bringing with them their hunting dogs, potentially the ancestors of the Warrah.

The presence of the Warrah in the Falkland Islands aligns well with the Biblical timeframe, providing yet another example of the reliability of the Bible in explaining the natural world.

Me when I think about how the warrah of the Falkland Islands, which descended from D. avus, was also theorized to have been brought to the islands after being domesticated by humans. Me when I think about how Darwin described them as being known for their "tameness and curiosity," and noted their lack of fear of humans. Me when I think about an animal that might've served as a companion for humans at some point being driven to extinction by Europeans for its fur and to stop it from scaring their stupid sheep into drowning themselves

Foxes were once humans’ best friends, study says

An artist’s reconstruction depicts the extinct fox species Dusicyon avus, which scientists believe may have been domesticated 1,500 years ago by hunter-gatherers in what’s now Patagonia in Argentina.

In an ancient grave in what’s now northwestern Argentina, a person was buried with a canine companion — but this animal friend wasn’t a dog, according to new research. The burial held the skeleton of a type of canid that may have once competed with dogs for human affection: a fox. Humans and dogs have a long history. The relationship between the two species is tens of thousands of years old. However, a fresh analysis of evidence from a Patagonian burial dating back about 1,500 years hints at a similar close connection between a hunter-gatherer in southern South America and the large extinct fox species Dusicyon avus...
