WILD DOG. 



Tliere is a wild dog in the Provinces which Mr.Blyth re* 

 gards as a distinct species ; and the Karens have described 

 to me an animal that makes his kennel in the ground like a 

 fox. or a jackal, which they say is found in the Shan coun- 

 try. The fox of the English bible is probably the jackal. 

 The Hebrew word is shugal, the Persian name of the 

 jackal is shaghal and shakal, and the Pali* is thengala or 

 shengala, from the same root, which the Bur man book? 

 render " earth-dog."t 

 Canis rutilis.

 identical with civet, though not the civet of commerce. 

 This species is not infrequently found in the villages, and 

 its secretion enters into the Burmese Materia Medica, 

 Viverricula m alaccensis. 

 Viverra malaccensis i Gmelin.
