What are Inusashi? wrote:Inusashi have been created by scientists while researching the genes of different animals. The top goal of them was to find a way to rekombine the genes of different animals and thus create a new species. After several failures of splicing and recombining different areas of the animal's DNAs they finally had success: They created a species that has the body of a dog, the horns of a goat and a mix of a dog's and a llama's fur. After keeping them secret and doing a lot of research on their behavior for a few years they finally introduced them as pets to the public.
Inusashi are a gentle, calm species that has been created by scientists. They are great family pets and serve as service animals in all kinds of areas. Their diet mostly consists of meat but they are definitely capable of digesting any kind of food, even sweets or any kind of pet food. If an Inusashi feels angered, excited, sick or scared their horns will get warm. No one knows why this is the way it is but scientists believe that Inusashi have the ability to see or feel warmth and use this as a kind of warning system. Inusashi aren't cosidered hybrids as they have not been created with a breeding program, but rather with a splicing program that involves bacteria DNA (click [url]here[/url] to see the whole process). Due to them not being hybrids they can breed. Their breeding behavior is similar to that of a dog's, the only difference being that they can only have a maximum of 4 pups. The pups are raised by both of their parents who teach them how to behave around different species and, depending on what area they are used in as service animals, - if any at all - they teach their pups how to behave in their 'jobs'.
Inusashi are a very intelligent species, with the average intelligence of a husky. Special cases can even learn to understand huge parts of the human language, but this is a rather rare sight. While there have been no plans on introducing Inusashi into the wild, some of them either ran away from their home or escaped the science labs. They now live as packs in all kinds of areas in the wild. These packs usually consist of a male and a female alpha animal and any number of beta animals. They hunt and behave like stray dog packs. They adapt to their environment very quickly, so they can survive pretty much anywhere. If a short haired Inusashi lives in a snowy and cold area it will soon start growing a compackt layer of protecting hair. If a long haired Inusashi lives in warm areas it will lose this thick undercoat. The undercoat cannot be seen unless you try to comb your Inusashi. But don't worry about the mountains of hair you will get while combing it, after all, almost all Inusashi are antiallergic!
