Sighting of wild dogs at Victoria Falls Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park in Zambia
Oct 23rd, 2009 by janieharmsen
Guests staying at Toka Leya Camp were recently treated to a rare sighting of wild dogs. The two guests had decided to take an early morning game drive before their departure - having seen four of Zambia’s five rhinos they weren’t expecting to beat that. However, driving alongside the edge of the Zambezi River the guide spotted a wild dog lying contently in the early sunlight. Nearby lay a half eaten impala carcass on which the dog had been feeding.
The wild dog is Africa’s second most endangered species and a rare sight in the Victoria Falls area. It was also unusual for the dog to be alone as they usually hunt in packs, rapidly devouring their prey. Not even any side striped jackals or vultures were present.
After about thirty minutes the dog wandered off into the shade – eyes still guarding its prize catch.
