Sardinian dhole Personality Type, MBTI
What is the personality type of Sardinian dhole? Which MBTI personality type best fits? Personality type for Sardinian dhole from Extinct Animals and what is the personality traits.
ENTP (2w3)
Sardinian dhole personality type is ENTP, which is the most common type in Sardinia.
The Sardinian dholes are considered to be the smallest canid species, with a body length of only about 59 cm (23.4 in) and a tail length of about 18 cm (7.2 in). They have a small head, with almond-shaped eyes and a black nose. Their fur is mottled fawn with a brownish tinge. The fur is longer on the legs, which gives the impression of a short-legged dog.
Their claws are longer than those of other canids, and are used for digging through the soil and toenails are black in color. The fur on the chest is long, and the fur on the back is short.
The Sardinian dhole is active during the day and is solitary by night. While it has been found to only occasionally form groups, these groups are usually large. The Sardinian dhole produces a series of growling-barking calls to communicate with other dholes and other canids, especially if the dhole is on guard duty. One of the calls is a bark-like call made whilst sitting down with widespread limbs.
The Sardinian dhole (Cynotherium sardous) is an extinct insular canid which was endemic to what is now the Mediterranean islands of Sardinia (Italy) and Corsica (France), which were joined for much of the Pleistocene. It went extinct when humans began to settle on the island. Its scientific name means "dog-beast of Sardinia", the genus name from the Ancient Greek: θήρ, romanized: thḗr, lit. 'beast', 'wild animal' and κύων, kyōn, 'dog' and the specific name from the Latin: Sardous, lit. 'of Sardinia', alt. form of Latin: Sardus.
The genomic analysis of a 21,000 year-old Sardinian dhole specimen indicates that the Sardinian dhole lineage and the Asian dhole lineage diverged from each other 885,000 years ago. Gene flow continued between the two lineages until between 500,000–300,000 years ago, coming to an end most likely when the land bridge between Sardinia and the Italian peninsula was submerged by rising sea levels, which stopped further gene flow.
