• The New Guinea Singing Dog
  Originally declared a unique species, canis hallstromi, in 1969 they were grouped with the Australian Dingo as a feral wild (wild-living) subspecies of the domestic dog, Canis familiaris dingo. Because of this most zoos stopped breeding them, and their captive population has subsequently declined.
