Canids are some of the greatest predators on Earth. They have spread to almost every nook and cranny of the globe, with the exception of Antarctica and some islands. But their story is a long and complicated one. The entire lineage was close to extinction multiple times. So how did they make it? What adaptations helped them thrive across the world? And why are they quite simply the best? This is the 40 million-year story of the dog.

Examining the nature of the beast. From apex predators to the planet's strangest creatures, Animalogic explores the science, behavior, and biology of the animal kingdom, one species at a time.
