The African wild dog, also known as Cape hunting dog or painted dog, is a canine with long legs with only four toes per foot. Different from other ordinary dogs, it has five toes on their forefeet. Its Latin name literally means "painted wolf," which refers to its uneven, mottled fur, which includes the colors: red, black, brown, white, and yellow. The most interesting part of this animal is that each of them has a unique coat pattern, but has identical big, rounded ears.
