A coyote, perhaps, brush wolf as they called them up north, or may be a timber wolf, two wolves, one begging from the other.
What is the sentence type here, and why?
The sentence type is a simple sentence because it has only one independent clause( subject is they, verb is called) : original.
Correct: The sentence type is a complex sentence. Because it has a fragment " A coyote...as" and the independent clause " they ......the other."

I think this sentence is not a complete sentence. This sentence doesn’t have any independent clause and there is one dependent clause which is “as they called them up north.” “as” functions as a subordinator in this sentence. Therefore, this sentence is a fragment-complex sentence.
I think this sentence is simple. In this sentence, "they called them," it is an independent clause. The word, "they," is refering "a coyote or a brush wolf," so that is why the author is using "as" to refer a coyote or perhaps a wolf.
