the Canary islands, also known as the Canaries, are a Spanish archipelago located just off the northwest coast of mainland Africa, between the borders of Morocco and Western Sahara. The name was said to be derived from the Latin Canariae Insulae, which translates to ‘Island of the Dogs’. Historian Pliny the Elder has noted that huge dogs inhabited the islands in ancient times. Experts however, have come up with an interesting theory: these so-called dogs were actually a species of seals; canis marinus or ‘sea dogs’.
