Carpocyon is an extinct genus of the Borophaginae subfamily of canids native to North America.

It lived from the Middle to the Late Miocene, 13.6 to 5.3 Ma Mya,[1] existing for approximately 16.5 million years.

The four species in the genus varied in size, with the largest (C. webbi) being about the size of a wolf; all had relatively small teeth, suggesting a diet that was more omnivorous than that of other contemporary borophagines.
