Burmese Dogs

"The pariah curs were baying the moon - it was only a quarter full and nearly down by midnight, but the dogs slept all day in the heat, and they had begun their moon-choruses already"
- George Orwell


It was on the first night of the 3 day trek from Kalaw to Inle Lake, in a small hilltop village, at about 4 a.m when, as we discovered later in the morning, we had all been awoken by the moon-choruses of a group of dogs that must have been larger than the human population of the town.

This is a series of photos I took with my phone while travelling around Burma during July 2018. I found the similarities between Burma as I visited it and how George Orwell wrote about it to be quite interesting, especially with regards to the dogs.
