@GargiRawat 1. Plz stop calling #IndianPariahDogs, ‘free ranging’ or ‘stray’. These are not stray but natural being, naturally found near human settlements, not domesticated but commensal cum symbiotic to us Homo sapiens not unlike bed bug, house lizard, house crow, black kite etc…

So-called ‘pariah’ is not stray but an ancient wild dog which is commensal cum symbiotic to humans & naturally found near human settlements in India like house crows/sparrows or urban langurs. Urban wild dog! Ps: dogs of much of d Himalayas r not ‘pariah’ but domesticated stray.

Stray dogs threaten over 80 species in India, including endangered ones like the Great Indian Bustard, Snow Leopard, Tibetan Wolves, Red Pandas, Olive Ridley Turtles and many more. In Hisar, Haryana they killed some 78% wildlife species and pushed the black buck to extinction!!!

What happens When masses of such (heavily) domesticated dogs escape to become feral/FRD for thousands of years ? They will tend to revert back to pariah/wild dog- the default dog ! And never to grey wolf -suggesting mankind has domesticated wild dogs and never any wolves.

Seven dogs stolen from their owners have gone viral after escaping from an illegal transport truck and making their way home. They traveled around 17 km together, led by a corgi across highways and fields, now safely back with their respective owners..🐶🐾🥺❤️

@artist_rama Sir who told you that pigeons are invasive in India ? Pigeons are millions years old in India. On the other hand hand sparrows migrated to India from Middle East side in the last 5k years along with the spread of agriculture.

@Microinteracti1 @vivekspeaksout We domesticated grey wolves into domesticated dogs, is a myth. Dogs quite existed before domestication as wild Canis familiaris (wild dog) which later started getting commensal to become pariah dogs. So we domesticated wild/pariah dogs into domesticated dogs, not some wolves.

Gandalv@Microinteracti1·
That sigh your dog just did? It’s 16,000 years old. Two studies published this week in Nature pushed back the genetic record of dog domestication by 5,000 years, detaching it entirely from the story of farming. The humans who first lived with dogs had no fields, no livestock, no permanent address. They were ice-age nomads, moving constantly across a frozen continent, and they had dogs with them anyway. Not for agriculture. Not for herding. Just because somewhere along the way, a wolf that wasn’t quite a wolf anymore sat down next to a human fire and stayed. The particular way your dog presses against your leg when something feels wrong, positions itself with a sightline to the door, watches you without watching you – that’s not a quirk. That’s a collaboration 16,000 years in the making, running without interruption through every plague, empire, and revolution since. Dogs are great. I love my dog. 🐕 Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

‘Pariah niche’ Indian Pariah dogs are an undomesticated/natural/wild strain of Canis familiaris and are naturally found near human settlements in India like house crows or urban langurs. Pariah/wild dogs like Desi/Dingo are wild counterparts of domesticated dogs, not wolves !

Humans have forgotten what co-existence is and how to use their intelligence to understand other species better — to live and let them live on this planet instead are confining them in cages and denying them the freedom to live freely. This video clearly shows that other species know how to coexist among each other. Via instagram.com/reel/DWVmqNsEj…

@Dakshsr06039842 @gaurravbhrdwj Fact check:- dogs of much of the Himalayas are ‘domesticated village’ dogs like Tibetan mastiff/Gaddi kutta/Bhotiya kukur or mix of such mastiff & ‘pariah’. Except NE, Himalayas don’t have ‘pariah’ dogs. Pariah dogs are closest to wild Canis familiaris (wild dog/yellow wolf)++
