For very complicated and bizarre reasons, this is the most iconic nature documentary segment of all time to me personally. So this begins on April 10th, 2009. I'm an almost 13-year-old on a Spring Break vacation to California. My family is at Balboa Park in San Diego and about to visit the Natural History museum, which is what I really wanted to see as marine biology was my autism special interest. I noticed a lot of people at what seemed to be a large outdoor church service around the Spreckels Organ Pavilion. I asked my parents if they knew why something like that would be there on a Friday, and my dad told me that it was because it was Good Friday. Until he said that, I had no idea it was Good Friday, and immediately freaked out that I was unaware of this "very important fact". This instantly started a misguided religious frenzy in my 13-year-old mind, and I felt I needed to be "punished" for my disregard of the day. Since I was the one in the group who wanted to go to the Natural History museum most and thought I no longer "deserved" it, I persuaded the others that I didn't need to see it as much and that their unique interests should be prioritized. We ended up going to the Model Train museum in replacement. After the vacation was over, I just kept going and going in this overzealousy. I started pathologically making personal promises to ban myself from random things like facing east while sleeping, and never crossing my legs or playing any form of game on Sunday. I didn't tell anyone else about them since I assumed people would just get angry. I "stopped" making these within a month, but kept trying to obey the lasting ones I had made. This was serious enough to my early teen self that I would have what is generally referred to as "Dreams of Absent Minded Transgression" where I freaked out upon realizing I was crossing my legs on a Sunday and would wake up in relief that I hadn't. I kept in this period of following these promises but not making anymore until November 14th, 2009. My mind was starting to get into the mood for making up sci-fi stories, and that day I encountered references to wolves in multiple separate places. My mind almost immediately started making up a sci-fi story centering on a telepathic wolf and a human scientist getting caught up in a multiverse conflict between a futuristic Roman society (I was a big Latin student) and a Lovecraftian hivemind (my older brother was big into Lovecraft at the time). With many of the base elements seemingly coming out of nowhere very quickly, I became afraid this would be an uncontrollable obsession and possibly even demonic. As a consequence, I, for the first time in months, made a new promise to myself: to try to not think and suppress this plot to the best of my ability. Obviously I can't ever be 100% successful. Since the story's main "iconic element" is the central lupine character, I felt that I also had to ban myself from thinking about wolves as a concept in general. So basically now, in my 13-year-old mind, I feel I have to stop myself from thinking about wolves as much as possible and avoid any situation where the word is said or the animal in question shown as much as possible. While I did well avoiding such situations in general, thanks to the "don't think about pink elephants" effect this in general thinking backfired and I started noticing obscure details like "flow" being the W-word backwards or how in my church hymnal's tonal dividing of "al - le - lu - ia", there was a separated "lu", which is of course the start of lupus, the Latin word for wolf. I did not tell anyone about this since I'd have to think about wolves to tell people I had banned myself from thinking about them. I realized this web of promises, and especially the one to avoid wolves, cannot last forever and there's plenty of Bible passages about not making promises anyways and ones that reference wolves (Isaiah 11:6 most famously, and this memory has led me to always recall it as mentioning wolves and not fall for the Mandela Effect claim that it "used to be" lion), but being a rather, uhm, weird kid as you can probably tell if you have read up to this to point, I was sufficiently psychologically bound by all these that I felt I still needed to end the promises is one dramatic fell swoop or it wouldn't feel real. So I needed some kind of event to force me to mention I had made a promise about wolves, which was the most intense promise to deal with of them all. I was big into Mythbusters and there were advertisements for the upcoming nature documentary series "Life" (this was the US version narrated by Oprah, though, not David Attenborough) that the rest of my family were showing interest in. I realized there was a good chance there'd be wolves in the series sometime, and I would have a hard time explaining excusing myself mid-watching. After watching a few episodes of it, I looked at the Wikipedia page for upcoming episodes, and, in the corner of my eye, noticed "Ethiopian wolves" mentioned. I quickly looked away, but now I knew which episode was going to be decisive. April 11th, 2010. A year since the promises began, and 5 months since the wolf promise. "Hunters and Hunted". In a months-built-up fight-or-flight moment of high heartbeat and bizarre chest feelings, once the wolves are named as such I immediately warn "I made a promise not to think about these animals." and come clean about the entire affair in what to my almost 14-year-old-mind is one dramatic, movie-like conversation. After that, I finally felt freed from all it. I personally named the day of the episode's Discovery Channel US airing, April 11th, as "V-L Day", a pun on the V-E and V-J days with "L" standing for "Lupus". Amusingly, the BBC played a rerun of this episode (though the better David Attenborough version here rather than the Oprah version) on the 10th anniversary. And, immediately, I went back to formulating that story, but with the involvement of the futuristic Roman civilization I realized it was highly usable for making my Latin studies memorable and associable. I was able to justify to myself that it wasn't a "dangerous obsession" that could take away from my schoolwork through this clever use. (Ironically in that story the telepathic wolf is a member of a fictional subspecies of canis lupus, which actually means these wolves are genetically further from him than coyotes and dogs)
I'd say there was some jackal-wolf interbreeding over the centuries, given the black-backed/silver-backed/golden jackals spread over Africa and the Middle East. This wolf is very similar in appearance to the Arabian wolf. Built for desert life.
A hybrid of Red Fox and Coyote. Has unique face at 0:43

What has David Attenborough not seen in nature? It's like as the wolf does the stalking, the man stalks the wolf.
