Status: Vulnerable Canidae family. It is the only species in its genus Cuon.
Dholes are mostly found in south Asia, ranging further north into central Asia to the borders of Russia, east to Malaysia and south to Sumatra and Java.
The dhole is a social canid and is generally seen hunting in packs.
Dholes appear in Rudyard Kipling's children's story Red Dog in The Second Jungle Book as a threat to Mowgli's wolf pack.
