The Desert Wolf is an enemy in EarthBound, which can be found in the Dusty Dunes Desert. It resembles a drooling wolf with brown fur, which presumably has adapted to the environments of the desert; its overworld sprite, however, is identical to that of the Runaway Dog. It either appears by itself, with a Bad Buffalo or a Crested Booka.
