In the Erya: Explanations of Animals (Erya Shishou), it says that a male wolf is called huan, and a female is called lang. The sub-commentary states: For the wolf, the male is named huan, and the female is called lang. According to the Shuowen Jiezi (Shuowen), it is a wild pig. The Zhengzitong states: The dog-huan is what people in Shu call the heavenly dog; it resembles a small, fat dog. Li Shizhen says: The tuan is a pig-huan. The huan is a dog-huan.
