Lacerdae hoplias ID?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Thanks guys for the positive responses.

It has been a year or so since I last kept wolves and been reading thru some posts again here to find the existence of “red” and “green” types of Lacerdaes. Complicated it seems.

Needed some confirmation that this is a “true Lacerdae”; the famous Lucy that DB keeps...spoonhead, big sized etc. Hence needed to dig and post on this old thread.

Once again, many thanks.
 
About 3 years too late but I hope the wolves people are onboard to help with with this:

First pic showing the under jaw and 2 showing the body shape and patches. Not the best of quality but the burning question:

Is this a true Lacerdae?
As stated you have a lac. Easiest way to tell is the pattern honestly, and I notice the LL to be especially noticeable on them compared to other wolves. The rio tapajos aimara that rapps had brought in are lacs as well. Now if your talking about the red and green lacs wes brought in, the red were mbigua, the greens I believe were australis, would have to dig through old threads and look at them again to see. kno4te kno4te might remember what the greens were.

Forgot about those. Lot to go through as well.
 
Beautiful Lacerdae I hope to acquire one of these someday. Hard to find for sure.
Sounds good about the new thread regarding its growth as well.
