Of the Gray Wolf, there are around 39 subspecies alone within this very species. Of the other wolves, namely the Ethiopian Wolf, Himalayan Wolf, Iberian Wolf, Indian Wolf (a marked possibility), and others, they are considered to be species themselves with no other subspecies to their name.

There are 38-39 recognized subspecies of wolf. For a list of these click on this link. There are also a few other species that are called wolves but, in reality, are not true wolves. Examples are the maned wolf and the Ethiopian wolf. They are wolves in name only.
