Reporting Date: 2.10.2012
wild dogs are rear species, and one should consider oneselve lucky if you happen to see them in the wild. Interestingly over the last one and half year the wild dogs have been sighted in isaaten conservancy. The dogs were not around recently for some time and we knew they were denning. They returned last week and they have cubs.
Today after fullday game drive the scout informed Daniel that the dogs are with a patrol half a kilometer away from the camp. After informing the guest if they would like and they said yes Daniel took a quick drive to find the dogs lying lazily after a kill of a wildbeest.
