Antarctican Wolves are a species of wolves that is native to Antarctica. They are very similar to and fill the niche like the similar-looking Arctic wolves of the Arctic. They likely are descended from early wolves of Africa that made their way into Antarctica during the Middle Pleistocene (possibly around 500,000 years ago) when the intense Ice Age occured, allowing these wolves to make their way into the icy lands of Antarctica. Antarctican wolves are naturally found in Antarctica's grasslands, forests, and tundra, where they prey on Antarctican deer, Antarctican false camels, Antarctican bison, seals, penguins, and feed on carrion.
