 أرصاد تاريخية

The earliest written reference to the species comes from the 13th century Aberdeen Bestiary:

وصف روپل للنوع (1835).

الأصل	الترجمة
¶ Lupos Ethiopia mittit, cervice iubatos et tanto varios ut nullum eis colorem dicunt abesse. Ethiopicis lupis proprium est, quod in saliendo ita nisus habent alitis, ut non magis proficiant cursu quam meatu. Homines tamen numquam impetunt. Bruma comati sunt, aestate nudi. Ethiopes eos vocant theas.	¶ Ethiopia produces wolves with manes, so diversely coloured, men say, that no hue is lacking. A characteristic of Ethiopian wolves is that they leap so high that they seem to have wings, going further than they would by running. They never attack men, however. In winter, they grow long hair; in summer, they are hairless. The Ethiopians call them theas.

Mounted specimen (1902), one of the first post-1835 specimens to reach Europe.

 تحت الأنواع

اعتبارا من 2005, two subspecies are recognised by MSW3.

ذئب إثيوپي جنوبي C. s. citernii	de Beaux, 1922	Initially classed as a distinct subspecies on account of its bright red coat, though this characteristic is unreliable as a taxonomic distinction. However, its nasal bones are consistently longer than those of the nominate subspecies.	جنوب شرق الوادي المتصدع: Arsi و جبال باله.

Summary of current status of Canis simensis

المنطقة	الموئل	تقديرات حجم التعداد	الوضع	الأهمية	التهديدات	الحفاظ
Simien Mountains، شمال گوندار	Consists of patches connected by corridors, totalling 273 km²	102 (as of 2010).	Stable?	As well as being a tourist attraction, the Simien population is the second largest after Bale, and is the most genetically diverse.	Human disturbance, road traffic, extensive agriculture, habitat degredation, Helichrysum encroachment into rodent habitat, disease, and competition/predation by golden jackals.	The entire range of the Simien population is contained within the Simien Mountains National Park, and have been monitored regularly since 2003.
Mt. Guna, South Gondar	An isolated patch, estimated at less than 20 km² by 2004	As of 2011, there have been no sightings, despite intensive monitoring during two field visits.	Extinct		Small population size, habitat loss, isolation and possible competition with abundant golden jackal populations.	An ORDA Biodiversity Conservation Project is active in the area, in conjunction with regional woreda and kebele governments, and supported by the Guna Highland Water enterprise.
North Wollo Highlands	Patchily distributed in an area encompassing 140 km²	19-23 (as of 2000).	Possibly declining, otherwise stable, as of 1998.		Isolation, habitat degredation, human-wildlife conflict and road encroachment.	The FZS and its associates are working to create the Abuna Yoseph Community Conservation Area, which is to encompass around a third of the wolf's range in North Wollo.
South Wollo highlands	Consists of patches connected by corridors, totalling 243 km²	16-19 (as of 2000).	Stable?	After Simien, this is the second largest area north of the Rift Valley.	Overgrazing, ploughing, persecution and local negative attitudes.	The local ericaceous forests and grasslands are under the protection of the Borena Saiynt Regional Park from agriculture as low as 3,200m. The Ethiopian Wolf Conservation Program and the FZS have also been involved in educational programs and wolf monitoring in the Denkoro area.
Guassa Menz, North Shoa	A single patch consisting of 112 km²	As of 2010, an estimated 40% of the region's wolves have been missing since a CDV outbreak was detected in local dogs.	Although diminishing from disease, the population is healthy and stable.	This is a core wolf population with ideal habitat, and increasingly becoming a tourist attraction.	Human disturbance, rabies, Helichrysum encroachment into rodent habitat and road traffic.	The wolf's range is protected by community resource management, and the imminent creation of the Guassa Community Conservation Area. Educational campaigns are undertaken in schools near wolf ranges.
Arsi Mountains, Bale	870 km²	54 wolves in nine packs, as of 2007-2010.	Probably declining.	This is the third largest wolf population, and occurs in the second largest Afroalpine area in Ethiopia.	Habitat degredation, expanding agriculture and road traffic.	Protected within the Arsi Mountains Regional Park.
Bale Mountains, Bale	1,141 km²	~250 adults and subadults.	Declining, but stable in long-term.	This is the largest wolf population, with the highest density of prey.	Disease (rabies and CDV) and agricultural expansion.	Most of the species' habitat occurs within the Bale Mountains National Park.
