Yodelling Canines at London Zoo Cross Dingo
Five sandy colored pups at London Zoo are crossing a rare New Guinea singing dog with a dingo. The pups resemble their singing dog sire Troilus who was gifted by Sir Malcolm Sargent. Troilus, kept with dingos after his mate died in January, brings an age old tale of spirits among New Guinea natives who first discovered the singing dogs in 1956.
