are the Carolina Dogs still roaming wild at all, or are they pretty much all domesticated? i live in Southwest Virginia, is there any chance i could find one somewhere in the wild here? i've never seen one face to face.
they are absolutely still roaming free. with urbanization encroaching on their natural habitat they are coming into contact with man more and more often.they do like to scavenge near land fills or dumpsters. the Virginias don't have a population that I know of. check out the habitat page on the cdrcp.org site for locations
i checked out the habitat page and did not know they were found in Great Smokey Mountains National Park! we live about 2 or 3 hours from the park, so if we go to Pigeon Forge or Gatlinburg if we can find a good spot in the park to look for them we will. this might be my best chance to see one in the wild. are they common in the national park?
