Description
6"x8" framed canvas featuring paw and nose prints from late New Guinea Singing Dog Bono. New Guinea Singing Dogs are known for their unique vocalization, and they are the rarest canine species on the planet! These ancient canines were believed to be extinct in the wild until a few years ago when a small population was confirmed to be living on Papua New Guinea. Bono and the other singers involved in his rescue never lived in the wild, originating instead from a flea market, where two pairs of singers were purchased and eventually bred so rampantly that their population grew to over 80 animals! Thankfully, they were all rescued by the collaborative efforts of numerous organizations who came together to save them. While living at Wild Spirit, Bono required a front leg amputation, which is why this painting features 3 paw prints--a feature that was unique to him.
