Talk:Dhole

message: Based on the inclusion of the two other large pack-forming members of the canina subtribe in the high-importance class of the dog category, their outsized importance in the understanding of overall canid taxonomy, their endangered status, and their conspicuously complex social nature, I've moved this species into the high-importance class for WikiProject Dogs.

message: Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to  on Dhole. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add  after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add  to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

message: I think it is likely the Tien Shan dhole is already extinct. The countries it is listed as occuring in (Russia, a few -stan countries) have had their dhole populations eradicated according to IUCN and I have been unable to find photos from recently of the subspecies. Give me some hint? -Corsican Warrah Israeli Pika 20:17, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: The cited sources are a bit old for the purpose, and the IUCN is silent on the status of this particular putative subspecies. I can't see any recent articles on it either. I don't think we can say anything specific here ATM. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 21:29, 26 April 2019 (UTC)

text: See: Makenov, M. 2018. Extinct or extant? A review of dhole (Cuon alpinus Pallas, 1811) distribution in the former USSR and modern Russia. Mammal Research 63 (1): 1–9. -- BhagyaMani (talk) 08:09, 27 April 2019 (UTC)

text: Dhole DNA was detected in the Pamir Mountains in 2022, which are within the Tien Shan dhole's range, so it is most likely rediscovered (List of Asian animals extinct in the Holocene). The one that might be extinct instead is the Ussuri dhole, which as pointed in Makenov above has not been seen since 2008 and in an area so close to the Tien Shan dhole's range that it might even be it instead. The last record around Ussuri is from the 1970s. I don't believe the photos of supposed Ussuri dholes in captivity in the Ussuri dhole article are actually Ussuri dholes.Menah the Great (talk) 16:58, 19 December 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: Therefore, they also raise the possibility that this implies some dhole remains may be currently misidentified as grey wolves. William Harris (talk) 00:13, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
