😕 I thought the Pope shat in the hat. On the throne of Peter, right?

Canines in the wild, such as wolves and coyotes, are beautiful things, deserving of respect, and their well-being deserving of consideration for the benefit of all. They are definitely not “fictional”, and the suggestion of such by the OP is reprehensible.

I’m also glad that OP is Pitting canid taxonomy. I’ve always felt that [del]taxidermists[/del] taxonomists should have their heads [del]stuffed[/del] examined!

The Raccoon dog (Nyctereutes procyonoides) is now placed in Tribe Vulpini (true foxes), while the crab-eating fox (Cerdocyon thous) is in Tribe Canini (true dogs). :smack:

No True Fox would ever think it was a dog.

Let’s not jump to conclusions. Maybe we should be adding “being a multi-sock puppet on the Dope” to the list of Obama’s crimes.

:dubious:
