>>49910348>2) Chinese Zodiac isn't year of the Canidae, or year of the Fox or Year of the Wolf, its Year of the DogCanid comes from canis (literally dog in Latin) and they were colloquially referred to as dogs, I'm not a zodiacfag, but it's not far-fetched. Also dogs (real dogs) are wolves, they're just a domesticated form of some "extinct" (in its original form) wolf subspecies from the Upper Paleolithic.
The real absurd here was calling a fucking obvious echidna monotreme a mouse, I don't know what nips were thinking.
