I've always been lucky with wild dog sightings. They are endangered and not so common, but I've seen them more times than I can remember. This trip was just a little crazy - we saw wild dogs three out of four times that we went inside the jungle and that percentage is a little unbelievable. Anyway, these medium sized dogs are probably the most feared predators in the jungles. Tigers, leopards and bears all stay out of their path because these dogs hunt in packs and are very efficient in their well coordinated attacks. Fortunately, there are not many (any?) cases of them going after humans - no wonder they call dogs as the best friends of people! :)

Jumping out of the water hole. Notice the water dripping down it's tail.



The Alpha female. Always kept an eye on us and even dragged the kill away from us, so that they could eat in peace. Smart one!
