Description
When: October 21, 2018
Where: Zie-ZOO Volkel, The Netherlands

It's becoming so hard to tell which one are the pups we watched grow up, and which are the parents
With such a grown-up face, I'm leaning more towards an adult, and it's have to be Jumper with that amount of white on the chest. The girls simply have very different faces.
Could still be a pup though - it's amazing how quick they've grown up.

Species: Ussuri or Chinese Dhole (Aziatische wilde of rode hond)

Latin name: Cuon Alpinus Alpinus

Originates from East Asia.

Current status: Endangered

Did you know:

…They’re also called Asiatic Wild Dog, Indian Wild Dog, Whistling Dog, Red Dog and Mountain Wolf. This specific Ussuri or Chinese Dhole, is also known as the Eastern Asiatic Dhole.

…Known to make a whistling sound resembling that of Red Foxes, sometimes rendered as coo-coo, it is unknown how they produce the sound but it is thought it coordinates the clan when traveling through thick brush.

…Dholes are highly social animals, and live in large clans withour rigid dominance hierarchies, containing multiple breeding females. These clans usually consist of 12 individuals, but clans of 40 are also known.

…They are able to jump 7 ft/ 2 meters straight up into the air.

…They suffer many threats to their survival in the wild, such as habitat loss, loss of prey, competition with other species, persecution due to livestock predation, but also disease transfer from domestic dogs. Their numbers are estimated at lower than 2,500 individuals and decreasing.
