This fascinating order has captured the attention of scientists and animal lovers alike throughout history. One notable figure who contributed to our understanding was Mary Anning (1799-1847).

Heathland habitats provide an ideal environment for many caniforms to thrive.

The thylacine or Tasmanian tiger is another intriguing member of Caniformia. Sadly extinct now due to human activities, this unique marsupial had dog-like features but carried its young in a pouch. Mustela nivalis or least weasel showcases how small members can be just as captivating. With their sleek bodies and incredible hunting skills they can true marvels of nature. The influence of caniforms extends beyond biology into art and culture.

Even lesser-known species like the yellow-throated marten leave an impression through artwork such as C016 / 5897. These elusive creatures add beauty and mystery to our natural world. Domesticated breeds like Kita the Norwegian elkhound remind us of our close relationship with caniforms. Their loyalty and companionship make them cherished members of many households worldwide.
