Shine the "dog in" behavior, Huai Shin Wildlife Sanctuary.

The Khao Nang Wildlife Research Station revealed images of dogs with the combined droppings of dogs, which are many aspects of animal behavioral reasoning that often involve communication, territory formation, and herd relationships.

The reason why imitating is odor communication to indicate gender, so when one is taken, the other will follow a sign or smell to confirm that it is in this herd. Create a latrine site as a boundary sign. It is a social imitation that allows the herd to behave unilaterally, creating unity and reducing risk to other predators. Because it is believed that the combined smell at one point reduces the chance of discovery rather than the spread of smell.

The conclusion is that dogs imitate dung because it is a mechanism of odor communication, protecting territory, and social behavior that reinforces unity, including reducing the risk of being tracked by other predators.

Inner dog (Dhole) scientific name Shape resembles a house dog with reddish brown fur. Shoulder area without saddle-back appearance like a jackal. Long and dark tail. Legs are dark.

Unlike normal dogs of the genus Canis, the tail is beautifully bushy, and the smell is not as strong as the Jackal. Female dogs have 12-14 breasts, breeding about 2 years old, pregnant for about 2 months, giving birth to 4-6 young at a time, sometimes up to 11, longevity about 15 years.

Dogs like to gather in herds and help to hunt prey, such as keng, deer and small animals. If you can't find other animals to eat, even tigers, bears, bulls hunt and roar like domestic dogs. Found in South Asia down to Indonesia. In Thailand, there are many regions in the south and west. Dogs have legal status, protected wildlife and conservation status. By the 2022 IUCN is endangered.
