These members of the Canine family tend to live in rocky areas that are surrounded by grasslands. They live in caves in those rocky areas and packs of them are a common sight, but they tend to hunt alone or in pairs with trios being an occasional sight.
As it is very well camouflaged in its grassland home, it is usually an Ambush Hunter that hunts at night, but they are not above being Pursuit Hunters as they are much faster than their large bodies make them look. They are able to become almost completely silent when they are stalking prey.
They are able to sense how good or bad another creature is and it is said that they gained this power thousands of years ago when a pack of them helped out a group of Fairies and as a thank you were granted that ability as well as an extended lifespan and high intelligence levels and those abilities were passed down through the generations.
Their eyes are naturally shades of light red, but when they sense that something is full of hate and prejudice, their eyes will turn bright red and begin to glow very bright. Many racists, xenophobes, homophobes, and transphobes have found themselves at the mercy of an angry Cù-sìth.
Naturally live in Scotland, Ireland, and the United Kingdom, but many domesticated ones can be found as living as pets throughout the world.
While not the biggest, they are currently the heaviest known members of the Canine family.
Their barks and howls can be very loud and it is said that they can be heard barking and howling from across the ocean.
Have between 3 to 10 young at once and many have been known to mate for life.
Can naturally live for a little over a hundred years, but their original lifespan was similar to that of a normal Dog.
Extra Fun Fact: Snubbull and Granbull from the Pokemon franchise are actually loosely based on the Cù-Sìth.
