ôkami is the Japanese name for the creature commonly called the Japanese wolf (Canus lupus hodophylax), which became extinct in 1905, though there have been many sitings since, mostly concentrating around the Kii Peninsula.  Because of its small size and stature, there is some dispute as to whether it was an actual wolf, the term "wolf-dog" being given as a possible alternate.  In fact, the term ''yama inu'' (山犬, "mountain dog") is a common Japanese term for the wolf.
