huskies
Arctic pack animals
Huskies is the plural of husky, a breed of sled dog developed in Arctic regions.
These dogs are known for their thick coats, endurance, and wolf-like appearance: The huskies pulled the sled across the frozen tundra.
Husky also means a person or thing that is big and sturdy, so huskies can refer to multiple such individuals. (Capitalized Huskies refers to sports teams.)
