    I'm sorry, but alphas aren't what you think it means. Rudolph Schenkel's study on wolf pack dynamics was methodologically unsound when he studied captive, unrelated wolves placed into an enclosure together. I like the description that a friend who's worked with wild wolves said. "Alphas are nurturers. They're Pack Dad/Mom and carry around a proverbial fanny pack full of snacks."

The Mexican grey wolf (Canis lupus baileyi) although endangered, it's a subspecies of a species the Grey wolf (Canis lupus) that's status is of least concern, so as a species the Ethiopian wolf (Canis simensis) is endangered, that it's self has two recognised subspecies, the Northern Ethiopian wolf (Canis simensis simensis) and the Southern Ethiopian wolf (Canis simensis citernii). The Grey wolf (Canis lupus) as a species is not endangered so the Mexican subspecies gets over looked.
