Also known as canids, dog family, canine family, canid
Canidae (; from Latin, canis, "dog") is a biological family of caniform carnivorans, constituting a clade. A member of this family is a canid (, rarely ), colloquially referred to as dogs. The family includes three subfamilies: the Caninae, and the extinct Borophaginae and Hesperocyoninae. The Caninae are the canines, and include domestic dogs, wolves, coyotes, raccoon dogs, foxes, jackals and other species.
Canidae is a family of meat-eating mammals that includes domestic dogs, wolves, coyotes, foxes, and jackals, along with some extinct relatives. The family is scientifically important because it represents a distinct evolutionary branch (clade) of carnivorous mammals that share a common ancestor.

FAMILY
犬科动物包括狗、狼、豺、狐狸等。犬科动物是地球上较为成功的一种肉食哺乳动物。犬科家族包括大约三十七种现存的狼、胡狼、狐和其他野生动物及家犬。它们全部都是肉食性动物,身体构造已演化成特别适合狩猎生活的形态。犬科动物通常春秋兩季會發情,所以說,原則上一年可交配兩次,若有懷孕成功,則一年交配一次。體型越大者,一次所懷的胎數較多,正常排卵者一次可產下6隻以上,小型者在3~4隻以下。

Canids are found on all continents except Antarctica, having arrived independently or accompanied by human beings over extended periods of time. Canids vary in size from the gray wolf to the fennec fox. The body forms of canids are similar, typically having long muzzles, upright ears, teeth adapted for cracking bones and slicing flesh, long legs, and bushy tails. They are mostly social animals, living together in family units or small groups and behaving co-operatively. Typically, only the dominant pair in a group breeds and a litter of young are reared annually in an underground den. Canids communicate by scent signals and vocalizations. One canid, the domestic dog, originated from a symbiotic relationship with Upper Paleolithic humans and is one of the most widely kept domestic animals.
