Forget barking guard dogs or playful pets — India’s royal hounds were bred for war, speed, and prestige.
In this episode of Simply Wild, we uncover the elite canine athletes of Indian history — from the imported Salukis of the Mughal court to the desi champions of the Deccan and North India. These sighthounds weren’t just fast. They were status. Strategy. Symbols of who ruled the land — and how.
From desert arrivals to desi rivals, this is the untold tale of how dogs helped emperors hunt, dominate, and define their kingdoms. It’s a high-speed chase through art, identity, and the wildest royal PR campaign of the past.
🎙️ Hosted by Mansab — writer, wildlife researcher, and your guide to the secret animal stories hiding in history’s margins.
