The Dhole, also known as Asian Wild Dog, Whistling Dog or Mountain Wolf, is a canid native to eastern Asia from Siberia to Malaysia. They're around a meter long and 50 centimeters high at the shoulders. They weigh around 12-17 kilograms. Their fur is reddish brown with a light underside. They can live in dense forest as well as mountainous regions and steppe.
Dholes are highly social and live in clans consisting of 12-50 animals and multiple breeding females. They break off in to smaller packs to hunt and can kill prey up to 10 times their own weight. As a group, they can defend themselves and each other even against tigers. When new pups are born, the whole group feeds both the mother and her offspring until they're old enough to join the hunt at around half a year of age. They're more social and less hierarchical than grey wolves and there is little to no infighting for dominance. They're also not territorial; they don't mark their territories and pups can join other clans without issues and they defecate into latrines.
On the hunt, Dholes use their athletic abilities to the fullest. They have excellent stamina and swimming skills. They can even jump 2 meters high. They may chase prey into a body of water. As opposed to wolves, the pups get fed first and are generally tolerant of scavengers. They only rarely attack livestock. They use a variety of sounds to communicate with one another, like whistling, barking and meowing.
Dholes were hunted due to the believe they kill livestock or are responsible for drop in game populations. They're also endangered because of habitat loss, loss of prey as well as competition by other species like Tigers, Leopards and bears. They're threatened by diseases and parasites due to them living along with other canids species.
Kemono Friends' Dhole first appeared in the nexon game in her old design as a minor character. She likes playing hide and seek and she follows Hokkaido Wolf around. She reappears in Kemono Friends 3 as one of the main characters. She follows the player character, a newbie expedition captain, after the main expedition team led by Serval and Mirai had been attacked and defeated in a large cerulean attack.
