TIL that African wild dogs have been observed "voting" to decide if the group should go on a hunt. To "vote" for a hunt, the dogs sneeze.

"I just want to find 11780 sneezes"
-- Dingo J. Rumpf
agree, should be more secretive, like farts
Eventually someone is going to know which farts are yours.
They're dogs, so you know there are going to be nose recounts.
The gerrymandering seems to be horrible there, too.
Well now I know why domesticated dogs will sneeze to signal they want to play. Playing is just practice hunting, and they're voting to go.
My Shiba communicates through sneezes when he wants to go on a long walk vs just wanting to go outside. I always assumed it was that his only other choice is to scream.
Sometimes with my fiancee's allergies are acting up she does a lot of voting. But we live in Illinois where "vote early, vote often" is our State slogan.
