From the name <em>Canis lupus</em>, one can find that the organism is a wolf. <em>Canis</em> is a genus meaning "dog". <em>Lupus</em> is the species meaning "wolf". So in short, <em>Canis Lupus</em> means "dog wolf".
One reason scientist use scientific names is to avoid confusion. For example, there are many species of bass, a fish, but there's only one kind of <em>Micropterus salmoides</em>, or a Largemouth bass for short.
