For The First Time In 50 Years, Ancient Breed Of Singing Dog Gets Spotted In The Wild

According to the study that was published a few days ago, the comparison of DNA suggests that these dogs and the singing ones are much more closely linked to each other than any other canine. They have this beautiful harmonic vocalization that you don't find anywhere else in nature. The conservation dogs are super inbred. [It] started with eight dogs, and they've been bred to each other, bred to each other, and bred to each other for generations–so they've lost a lot of genetic diversity, Elaine Ostrander, the senior author of the paper, told CNN. The researchers hope that we will be able to preserve these rare doggies by breeding some of the newly discovered wild dogs with the New Guinea singing dogs. New Guinea singing dogs are rare. They're exotic. They have this beautiful harmonic vocalization that you don't find anywhere else in nature, so losing that as a species is not a good thing. We don't want to see this (animal) disappear, Elaine Ostrander added. Image credits: Anang Dianto.
