Rating Newest Oldest. Best Answer: The largest wolf on record was a male Alaskan wolf (Canis lupus pambasileus) which weighed 175 pounds. This is the largest wolf subspecies (up to 3 feet tall at the shoulder), but this individual was exceptional - they normally weigh no more than 130 pounds, occasionally up to 150. There is considerable variation in size across wolf subspecies, with more northerly populations usually being larger than more southerly ones.
