Wild Dogs resting in woodlands-dbl Image: These individuals, from 2 different packs, are young adults, or near-adults, holding their heads up alertly and looking towards the camera, displaying their large, rounded ears. [La Bala & Quando ,Botswana].
Wilddogs resting in the woodlands (dbl Image). They are the same pack of dogs as in one of the preceding image, but including some of the juveniles. It was nice to see that they all seemed fit & well-fed. [La Bala & Quando, Botswana].
These two fully grown elderly adult male Wilddogs, must have come a long way. They seemed very tired and have collapsed under a bush: I was able to get quite close without disturbing them. They were the largest specimens of wild dog that we had seen, perhaps weighing as much as 55-60 pounds. They were alone, because we could not find any other individuals in the vicinity. Wild Dogs are known to travel great distances, and so they may have just been coming through this area to join up witht their pack at some further point.[Botswana].
