Fuegoan dogs are the other extinct domesticated animals here. They were probably domesticated culepo foxes, but there is a minority viewpoint that they were instead domesticated variants of Duiscyon avis, a large, recently extinct species of fox that died out not long before the fuegoan dogs did.
The other weird one here is the Domesticated bactrian camel. From DNA evidence, the ancestor of wild bactrian camels and domesticated bactrian camels split 2 million years ago. That means that wild bactrian camels are not the wild ancestor of domesticated bactrian camels, and there is a third species here which was basically identical to wild bactrian camels, except for genetics, and was domesticated.
