Ling ling
From Bungiepedia
| The subject of this article is Bungie Lore; one of the many myths, legends, and easter eggs that have been created by Bungie. |
Ling-Ling is Bungie Studios' dog. Only it's not so much a dog, but a dog's head. It's contained in a jar of formaldehyde. The dog's head was once lost, (see picture to the right) but it has now been found, and is kept inside Bungie Towers.

"Dog's head in a jar. Has mystical significance. But it's too nasty to think about. Especially if you think about opening the jar, and drinking the head-water down in one mighty draft. DANGER! Do not juxtapose Tijuana Mama with Ling Ling! When the jar containing Ling Ling finally breaks, as it must, Bungie will make a sequel to Gnop!"
Recovering Ling-Ling's head is Step 5 in Bungie's 7-Step Plan for World Domination, and it is currently listed as completed. Also 'when Ling-Ling's jar is broken, Owt Gnop! will be made', referring to the sequel to Bungie's first ever game, Gnop! Ling-Ling's jar has not been broken.
[edit] Trivia
- Ling-ling has seven hairs on it's head.
- In Halo 2, there is an easter egg where ling-ling can be seen on a sign in the multiplayer map, "Zanzibar" on July 7th
- You can some times see Ling-Ling's face in the clouds of the Halo 2 level "uprising".
Ling-Ling as seen today. Bungie prides itself on how well preserved they've kept Ling-Ling.
