Apparently dogs in Moscow are using the metro to travel into the city to search for food and then travel back out to the suburbs at night. Amazing!
The biologist in me thinks this is so cool to see how these dogs have used their cognitive behaviors to "hunt" for food. They have adapted to the system.
My animal friendly side is concerned about all of these stray dogs; that I am sure are not spayed and neutered. Yikes! Some of them don't look too healthy. :-( Why are all of these dogs just sleeping??
Not to mention the part of me that thinks about my non-dog-loving friends (you know who you are) and how this might terrify them in a public space!
Then I think - you know, I went to the park yesterday, and even on the park you had to have your dogs leashed. Interesting - two very different worlds!
Anyway, I thought this was good food for thought. :-) Enjoy!
This man doesn't seem bothered in the least!

That is too cute! Yes I am one of the friends who is a bit afraid of dogs, but if these guys are as well behaved as described in the blog post link describes, I would be ok. Doesn't it sound like something out of a children's book??
this is so interesting dogs adapting like that, do they only have sheppards in Moscov? I thought they were German! teehee me bad!
Hey Ub! Yes, you were the first one I thought of about these dogs roaming free! :-)
Mommanator! I agree! sooo cool. Yes, it does seem to be shepards mixes....huh!
