A collage of the pack of Wild Dogs seen in Hluhluwe Imfolozi Park yesterday. They loved the water and as you can see would even lie down in it. I found it very strange that they took turns to urinate in different puddles asif marking it as their property.
The number of Wild Dogs are declining and there are approximately 4 500 surviving in protected areas in Africa. The largest population of Wild Dogs in South Africa, is in the Kruger National Park, although, sadly they are one of the only three mammals in South Africa that are endangered.
