Moscow’s Wild Dogs Ride Subways To City Center In Search Of Food

One of the best Space Opera books ever. A direct sequel The Children of the Sky is due to be released October 21st. To say I am super excited for its release is an understatement!

Do you have any proof of that? A quick search doesn't turn up any other assertions of it being fake, much less a good refutation of the claim that dogs in Moscow have learned to ride the subway.

EDIT: According to an article on FT.com, 20 dogs out of a population of 35,000 have learned how to ride the subway. If you're saying that the claim that most dogs know how - which is certainly suggested by this article - is fake, then you're certainly correct.

Nothing in the top results of google seems to indicate that "andrei poyarkov" does not exist, or that the research does not exist. Do you have a link to a debunking?

I've seen this (or a similar story) before and figured it probably was. Do you have any source pointing out how/why it's fake?

I lived on the red line and rode it daily for 5 months. I don't know about all the claims made by the post, but I do know that I rode the line on a pretty regular schedule and I think I often saw the same dogs taking the line at roughly the same time. Trains come every 90 seconds so it's hard to say exactly, but it was a common enough phenomenon that I thought I recognized some of the dogs after several months.
