EDITORS COMMENTS
In this enchanting studio portrait, the captivating eyes of Kita, a Norwegian Elkhound, gleam with intelligence and curiosity. With a soft, fluffy coat that shines in the light, Kita embodies the charm and allure of this ancient breed. Hailing from Norway, Norwegian Elkhounds, also known as Elgshund in their native language, are part of the Canidae family, which includes wolves, foxes, and domestic dogs. As a member of the Canis genus, Kita shares a close relationship with wolves, but has been domesticated for over 4,000 years, primarily as a hunting companion. The Norwegian Elkhound's long, elegant muzzle and powerful build are evident in this striking image, showcasing their distinctive features. Kita's outstretched ears and alert posture suggest a keen sense of hearing and readiness for action. As a placental mammal, Kita belongs to the Eutheria order, which includes all mammals that give birth to fully developed young. The Therian class, which includes all mammals that live above ground, is represented by Kita and her fellow Elkhounds. Within the Caniformia suborder, Norwegian Elkhounds are part of the Canini tribe, which includes various types of dogs. This classification highlights their close relationship to other canids, such as wolves and foxes. As a beloved pet, Kita offers companionship, loyalty, and a unique connection to the rich history and heritage of the Norwegian Elkhound breed. This portrait by Harry Taylor invites us to appreciate the beauty and character of this remarkable mammal.
