In the earlier parts of its history, the Rhodesian Ridgeback has also been known as Van Rooyen's Lion Dog, the African Lion Hound or African Lion Dog—Simba Inja in Ndebele, Shumba Imbwa in Shona—because of its ability to keep a lion at bay while awaiting its master to make the kill.

It's still in testing, but it wouldn't hurt to Google when you haven't heard of something.
And why do you seem defensive over this post? It's a joke.

It's too bad they never used, oh I don't know, mastiffs to fight lions, bears, and other assorted deadly animals.
It's a good thing dogs don't save countless lives every year by either acting in defense or finding lost people.
It sure is nice to know that cats will aid in your survival by helping you hunt, or herd, or even pull small loads.
We're so lucky to have animals like cats that contribute to the well being of others by acting as therapy animals for those who are suffering!

If you honestly think cats are superior to dogs in any way other than being easier to care for therefore making it easier for people to be lazy, then you are quite mistaken.

How about the amount of lives dogs take? You know ripping people throats out, chasing them into traffic.
Cats are smarter than dogs, they just don't give a **** about humans or other creatures.

Which i find admiring, i own both a cat and a dog, the dog is ******* stupid and annoying, the cat just likes to eat ,sleep on my belly and beat the **** out of the dog.
( and i love both of them ) But i think cats are cooler.

While cats do have some natural intelligence, dogs are as smart as their owner.
A well trained dog will stand stock still as you fire a gun off, not flinching.
Any dog with a decent owner won't rip anybody's throat out unless prompted to for some reason.
In 2012 there were a total of 34 fatal dog attacks recorded in the US in 2012 (that's a whole 3 above average). There are approximately 2,600 deaths a day and around 2.4 million deaths per year in the US. I'm SO ******* SORRY that dogs are going out and massacring people left and right. These uncommon acts are obviously outweighing their benefit to society. Perhaps we should just kill off all the dogs so we can sleep safe at night?
While, yes, dogs have been involved in many fatal attacks on people, it is the owners who are at fault. 20 of those listed fatalities were caused by pit-bulls and pit-bull mixes. They can be calm and lovable dogsif properly trained. However, many people who own them either don't bother to train them, or even train them TO be aggressive.
Cats do nothing for the well-being of human kind.
