Te has preguntado si la naturaleza creó a un perro que no ladre, pues sí lo hizo. La raza se llama basenji. Este perro no es que no sea capaz de ladrar sino que lo hace de una manera distinta. Su ladrido suena más como una sirena o como si una persona estuviera aullando. ¿No me crees? Dale un vistazo al siguiente video:
Este peculiar sonido se produce debido a que tiene una laringe diferente al resto de su especie, al tener un espacio entre las cuerdas vocales menos profundo, limitando su movimiento y generando un sonido agudo distinto al ladrido tradicional.

En 1995 la revista Genetics and the Social Behavior of the Dog publicó un estudio que se realizó durante 13 años, el cual analizó la genética y el comportamiento de los basenji, llegando a la conclusión que la ausencia del ladrido tradicional en esta raza responde a su ascendencia genética que se ubica en África.
Los investigadores de dicho estudio realizaron la siguiente premisa: “Es posible que el ladrido, que es una señal de alarma que dan los perros cada vez que un animal o un extraño se acerca a su territorio, no sea del todo propicio para la supervivencia africana. Se dice que a los leopardos les encanta comer carne de perro, por lo que ladrar solo provocaba que llamaran más la atención y con ello disminuir sus posibilidades de supervivencia”.
Los estudios avalan que esta discreción de no ladrar de los basenji pudo haber empezado en el continente africano, de donde proceden sus ancestros, una cualidad que pudo haber ayudado a la raza a sobrevivir en el mundo salvaje. ¿Te animarías a tener uno de estos simpáticos firulais de orejas muy expresivas o ya tienes uno como parte de tu familia perruna?
