themusikman 0 Posted October 4, 2006 Lovely capture of a beautiful animal. What is that red thing (spot) on his nose, though? Thank you for sharing.DTK Link to comment
mike de la haye 0 Posted October 5, 2006 Thanks for the comments. I believe the red spot is a flower from the tree above the fox. Mike Link to comment
quercus 0 Posted October 7, 2006 That is a very strange looking fox. It looks more like a dog. Link to comment
mike de la haye 0 Posted October 7, 2006 Warren, very astute on your part. You are correct this is in fact an animal known as the Dhole (Cuon alpinus). It is a species of wild dog of the Canidae family. It is also known as the Asiatic Wild Dog; less known names include the Indian Wild Dog, the Red Dog, the Asiatic Dog, and the Whistling Hunter. As you might have guessed it is not native to Canada or North America for that matter. Link to comment
