Japanese translation of wolf and coyote

[grunt2345]

What are the japanese words for coyote and wolf?

 

[kokishin-no-neko]

According to Japanese Language, wolf is either "ookami" or "urufu". My dictionary also gives "ookami" so I guess that's the safest option.
Neither source gives a translation of coyote though I'm afraid.

 

[mdchachi]

The Japanese word for coyote is coyote -- except pronounced in Japanese fashion i.e. koyo-te

 

[Zanza]

Yes, it's "ookami".
