Extinct animals?

there is a website, http://extinctanimals.petermaas.nl/ where it list a wide number of extinct animals, from Mammals to Fish, and Birds, etc. I was wondering for ANY info on any animal on any of those lists. I have info for most, but generally it is minimal, eg. Where it lived &sci name. So I would appreciate any and more specific details about any extinct animals on these lists. THANKS! These animals I have no details of: Eastern Elk (Cervus elaphus canadensis) Iberian Wolf (Canis lupus signatus) Florida Red Wolf (Canis rufus floridanus) Arizona Jaguar (Panthera onca arizonensis) Jamaican Monkey (Xenothrix mcgregori) Dangs Giant Squirrel (Ratufa indica dealbata) Western Hog-Nosed Skunk (Conepatus mesoleucus telmalestes) Merriam's Elk (Cervus elaphus merriami) Again, any help is appreciated, thanks! I also did try to Google all of the animals, however that did not work either. Thank you Kaya for your sites, they did help me.

  1. Try Googling the animals by name instead of just relying on that site.

  3. Funny you ask that question... I was lucky enough to visit a red wolf breeding program just a few days ago and did some searching for more info. All I did was put in the common name, i.e. red wolf, and then the scientific name, cannis rufus, and for some reason the links I found had a great deal of scientific info, from size and breeding habits to detailed re-introduction plans and results. I guess the combination of both names in the search pulled up better sites. In fact, I just used the Yahoo search bar to get everything I wanted to know.
