Beagle
Famous exploration ship
A beagle is a small hound with a compact body, short legs, and long drooping ears, bred primarily for hunting rabbits and hares by scent.
Beagles are known for their friendly temperament and distinctive baying voice.
Their size and gentle disposition have made them popular family pets: The beagle caught a scent and took off across the field.
