Dhole

The dhole / d l / ( Cuon alpinus ) is a canid native to Central , South and Southeast Asia . Other English names for the species include Asiatic wild dog , [3] Indian wild dog , [4] whistling dog , red dog , [5] and mountain wolf . [6] It is genetically close to species within the genus Canis , [7] ( Fig. 10 ) though its skull is convex rather than concave in profile, it lacks a third lower molar [8] and the upper molars sport only a single cusp as opposed to two to four. [9] During the Pleistocene , the dhole ranged throughout Asia , Europe and North America but became restricted to its historical range 12,000–18,000 years ago. [10]

The dhole ( Cuon alpinus ), pronounced "dole" and also called the Asiatic wild dog or Indian wild dog , is a species of canid native to South and Southeast Asia . It is the only extant member of the genus Cuon , which differs from Canis by the reduced number of molars and greater number of teats . The dholes are classed as endangered by the IUCN , due to ongoing habitat loss, depletion of its prey base, competition from other predators, persecution and possibly diseases from domestic and feral dogs.
