The Dhole (Cuon alpinus) 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 (due to the whistling sound it can make).
Within the canid family, the dhole is placed in a genus of its own. The dhole has been a distinct species for several million years. Cuon means dog in Greek, and alpinus means alpine (Mountain) in Latin. Thus the dhole’s scientific name means mountain dog.
The dhole is, generally, most active in the early morning and evening, and sometimes at night.
