- The Peruvian Hairless Dog, or Incan Flower, is a native dog to the region. Having warm skin to the touch, it has and is used for its medicinal properties, much like a hot water bottle. Evidence of their remains has been found in many pre-hispanic archeological sites.
Lioness Siena from the Marsh Pride in the Maasai Mari was badly injured after a horn of a buffalo punctured her left lower flank. Safari guides saw her and called up rangers who alerted veterinarian Dr Njoroge from Kenya Wildlife Service. Him and his team treated Siena which took a little over an hour. Two days later she was spotted doing remarkably well, we hope she is able to continue to improve. Shout out to The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, Dr. Njoroge and his medical team, and the assistants of the Narok County Council. 📸 ©️ Patrick Reynolds. #instafrika - @instafrika on Instagram

#Repost @londolozi • • • • • • At least three hyena clans inhabit Londolozi; one in the north, one central and one deep south. UNlike lions whose pride movements are far more random (or so it seems) hyenas - or at least the breeding females - are based out of a central den where they keep their cubs. Clans can actually have multiple dens at the same time. Although we dont have an accurate count, from simple observation the hyena population on Londolozi seems to be as high as its been in recent years. . . . #londolozi #wildlife #wildlifephotography #thelondolozieffect #safariphotography #southafrica #krugerpark #instagram_sa #wildestafrica #krugernationalpark #sabisands # #safari #africansafari #hyena #cub #predator - @iconicafrica on Instagram

And what a game drive they had! All of the usual characters were in attendance- including one of our resident prides of lions, who were enjoying a buffalo carcass. It is key to get community members to understand the value of conservation and preservation of wilderness areas - and with many of them never having seen lions before, let alone this close, it certainly made its point. Experience. Enjoy. Protect.

Animals know. They can see kindness, and they seek it. Gary and Sara have had a few new arrivals to the sanctuary, some baby wombats and Amy the Cobargo Wee Wallaby. These cuties will receive a lot of love and care from them until they are sent out to other shelters. The wombats will go to an unaffected (by fire) shelter until they are a little older and will then return to Gary and Sara as this is his/her home. The mothers of these orphans will have taught their babies the layout of the land. Where to find the best feed and where to find water. They will not forget what their mothers taught them. Without a steady supply of water, keeping these darling bush babies long term is not feasible so Amy the wallaby is heading off to another carer shortly who has another wallaby the same age. This will offer company and comfort to the babies. Water is necessary for making bottles, washing pouches and basic linen items required to keep bush babies warm and clean. This is why a water tank is high on Gary and Saras priority list. A tank is still a little while off as they work through some challenges to get it delivered, but the wheels of progress are moving slowly. Send some love to these little babies ❤️ - @cobargowildlifesanctuary on Instagram
Happy #CameraTrapTuesday! This week, we have a species that is not often seen due to their nocturnal nature - the aardvark or antbear. Aardvarks can eat up to 60,000 ants and termites during the course of a single night. While raiding ant and termite colonies, the aardvark can close its nostrils to keep the dust and the insects from getting into its snout. #Karingani #People #Wildlife #Conservation #Nature #Aardvark #WildlifeFacts #CameraTrap #WildlifeConservation #Mozambique #WildlifeMoments #ThisIsMozambique #WildPlanet - @karinganimozambique on Instagram

A carrot-topped hyena 🥕 Spotted hyenas (Crocuta crocuta) are known as sneaky scavengers and not loved for it! But the truth is they’re actually incredibly successful hunters. They hunt in groups, able to take down larger prey like zebras. They also live in a super complex social system head by a matriarch. - - - - - - - - - #hyena #spottedhyena #carnivore #predator #africanwildlife #animalphotography #wildlifeonearth #wildlifebloggers #wildlifeofinstagram #animaleducation #animallover #animalelite #nature_ntc #featured_wildlife #photoshare_everything #wildlifeperfection - @sabrinawildlife on Instagram

African wild dogs differ from their domestic cousins in a number of interesting ways. Apart from their unique, patterned coats, long legs and large, rounded ears, they also have only four toes per foot. These unique adaptations allow them to hunt extremely effectively, using their big ears to keep track of pack members over long distances and their strong limbs to cover the ground between them and their prey at incredible speeds. #WildDogs #AfricanWildDogs #PaintedWolves #EndangeredSpecies #SingitaSabiSand #SabiSands #SouthAfrica #LuxurySafari #OurSingita #Singitagram #Singita_ #WildlifeConservation #SustainableTourism⠀ - @singita_ on Instagram

Update on the Mpindo: A mixed bag to say the least. The team has been following the pack day by day. Sadly they have been documenting more loses, while at the same time witnessing the pack clearly getting to grips with the challenging task of hunting. The pack had moved south into an area with no roads so we have been waiting for some days for them to re-appear. They finally did on Wednesday evening and were seen killing a waterbuck. Before they had a chance to feed on their kill, 2 lions stole it from them and 13 hyenas were counted at the kill sight as well. On Thursday morning, the team only counted 12 dogs in total. This serves to underline the tremendous pressure they are under, and while honing their hunting skills, they are still on a very steep learning curve when it comes to avoiding bigger predators. Whilst we expect loses, it’s nonetheless sad, however, its nature and the Mpindo pack are back where they belong, in the wild. #mpindopack #manapools #mpindopackrelease #mpindopackupdate #savethepainteddog #pdc #wildlife #conservation Ist and 2nd Images (Mpindo pack) by Shaun McMinn @africaneye_shaunmcminn 3rd Image (Not Mpindo pack, just for illustration) by Nicholas Dyer @nicholasdyerphotography - @painted_dog_conservation on Instagram

For many mammal species, protected areas are their last hope, says a new study co-authored by @TheWCS. This includes African wild dogs, which have suffered an 89% range loss in the last 50 years. Today, 71.6% of it is protected. . “There is little doubt that without protected areas we would have lost amazing species like tigers and mountain gorillas, said the paper’s senior author, James Watson from WCS and the University of Queensland. This science clearly shows that to abate the extinction crisis, we need better funded and more protected areas that are well-supported and well-managed by governments and other land managers.” .

☆ No prisoners ☆ Some say nature is cruel, some say its unfair. I just say nature is perfect. Every day is a challenge, everyday is a struggle for life and death. So while Bambi might be on the TV screen, the reality is that battles in the African Savannah rage on. Are they always pretty to watch ? No. Are they sometimes gut wrenching ? Yes. Nature doesnt take favourites. Nature doesnt discriminate. It is just a perfect balance. Always. A Hyena, in this instance, lost the battle. Broken back legs, blood, mud. Its raw. It was the end for this Hyena. But the battle carries on. Tomorrow is another day. I am a professional wildlife photographer based in South Africa. I shoot nature in all its raw beauty.

The moral of the Story We are always told that no two days in the bush are ever the same, that the learning continues and with each hour you spend in the field, your knowledge and experience grows. This holds true for new guides who enter the industry with limited experience and very little first-hand exposure. Telling stories is difficult but as time goes on, your repertoire of personal encounters grows and your ability to convey these tales becomes second nature. A principal note that supersedes this message would come from experienced guides, those who have spent years and decades in the bush. They too add to their repertoire each time they step foot into nature and add a story to their journey. #mikesutherlandphoto #comeESCAPEwithus #wildgeography #photographer #natureismental #thisissouthafrica #southafrica #nature #safari #africa #iamnikonsa #inspiredbycuriosity #tswalu - @mikesutherlandphoto on Instagram

The scientific name of the African #wilddog is lycaon pictus, a latin term meaning #paintedwolf. Similar to other great #African #animals with distinct coat patterns, no two wild dogs have the same spotted patterns - these are unique to individual wild dogs and help members within the pack distinguish between one another. The beautiful colours of their coat (black, brown, yellow and white) also helps wild dogs blend in to their natural habitat of grassland, savannah and woodland. Unlike their domestic counterparts, wild dogs only have four toes per forefoot. In addition, a wild dogs large, round ears allow them to keep track of pack members over long distances through audio signals. African wild dogs are most active during twilight - the period immediately before dawn and after dusk - making them #crepuscular. Twilight is a key time for wild dogs because their prey is the most active during this period and the cover of night gives wild dogs a hunting and #camouflage advantage, making them more difficult to be detected by both #predators and prey. #learnaboutwildlife #SAASAvisit #Jukani #wildlifesanctuary #plettenbergbay #thecrags #gardenroute #southafrica #plett #westerncape #jukaniwildlifesanctuary - @saasa_jukani on Instagram

Following a report of a painted dogs den sighting in Sinamatela, our trackers Washington Moyo and Lephius Muyuni went to check it out. Behold, its the Lukodet pack and Didi, the alpha female, is denning! The pack has been off the radar for a while and tracking inside the park hasn’t been as frequent due to COVID-19 lockdown restrictions. We suspect this is probably the packs second den or so. Painted dogs normally move their pups to a new den site a few times during the denning period to avoid detection by other predators in the area that could pose a threat to the pack and the pups. Another reason is to avoid or reduce parasite infestations. The pups will stay at a den until they are about 4 months old. This is when they are big and strong enough to move with the pack. Unfortunately, the team did not catch a glimpse of the pups or get closer to the den as they were avoiding disturbing the site. Didi and other pack members were also jealously guarding the site against all sides. Last year Didi had a litter of 11 pups and 13 pups in 2018, though not all survived in both litters. We are happy the pack is well and growing even bigger and stronger. The last time we saw the Lukodet they were 16 strong. Keep checking our page for more updates. #lukodetpack #didi #savethepainteddog #sinamatela #pdc #wildlife #conservation #forwildliferangers Photo Credit📸: Washington Moyo - @painted_dog_conservation on Instagram

The Matimba male Hairy Belly & Othawa pride by @cal_butler The elephants chased the three buffaloes towards the pride of lions , the pride gets up and tries his luck, at this time the old Matimba watches everything and decides to take complete control of the operation. It was only at this point that the Matimba male lion realised that his nap had been interrupted. He got up to see what all the fuss was about. It was a little comical to see him just standing there, taking in the whole spectacle. With clearly no end in sight, the Matimba decided to step in and show who is really boss. There was an initial scuffle and the Matimba managed to grab hold of the buffalo’s back. The buffalo thrashed around wildly, like a scene out of a rodeo show gone wrong. The buffalo managed to break free and dashed towards the dam wall. The pride of lions followed in hot pursuit. By this time the elephant and the other two buffalo had fled the scene. The lions were able to catch up to the buffalo quickly. This time around, the entire pride jumped in and every member had a role to play. One of the Othawa females managed to grab the buffalo by the mouth and tried to suffocate it. The Matimba male jumped onto the back, trying to break the spine, while the older of the young Othawa males tried to pin the buffalo down from behind. The youngest of the Othawa lions started to dig into the hind legs. It seems that they had finally managed to get a good grip on their prey. The buffalo gave all it had and managed to fling off the female in the front. He managed to get the tip of his horn into the female, but not causing any major injury. This was the first time that I had seen the Matimba make any effort or attempt at using his strength and power as a male lion. I had instantly gained new respect for the old male lion. He was not going to give up his hard earned meal. After a great deal of struggle, the lions managed to successfully take down the buffalo. They spent the next three days feasting along the water’s edge. This ordeal provided a great learning curve for the young Othawa lions and the Matimba male held onto his legacy as a power not to be trifled with. - @lionsightings on Instagram

- This is called a Fossa, a carnivorous cat like animal who’s habitat resides in Madagascar, and is somehow closely related to the mongoose family
- Feeding the pride. It’s always a ‘family’ (full pride included) dinner. Nothing is wasted n it seems there is just enough to go around (there were 3 zebras on the menu this meal) n this was a pretty big pride - 3 large males run it n estimated 14 pride members or so total.

☆ Cuteness ☆ Two African Wild Dog puppies enjoy some playtime at their den. To see African Wild Dogs in the wild is always a privilege - to photograph them at their den site is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Unfortunately African Wild Dogs need very large home ranges, and also need to eat on a daily basis - this does mean that most reserves simply cant ( or wont) accommodate them. As Africas 2nd most endangered carnivore, we need to do everything in our power to save them. So next time that you are on Safari, please, look at them in a new way - they are absolutely incredible animals and Africa would simply not be the same without them! Would love your thoughts ?

“People are definitely having to push the boundaries in terms of seeking out unusual subjects or trying new techniques to get images that haven’t been seen before, because all the low-hanging fruit has been done a long time ago.

Do you agree with @lionwhisperersa on how we should protect lions throughout Africa? 🌍🦁 Let us know in the comments below 👇 Full story in bio 🙌 Kevin: My honest belief is that we need to adopt a South African model, and that’s going to send a lot of people into orbit because they’re going to go ‘oh it’s not natural or how it’s meant to be’. But I’m going to go, yes - but it’s not natural that we have 8 billion people on the planet. So, we need to do the best we can to preserve these areas. You know I cringed at the thought of fencing the Serengeti and the Masai Mara. But if I had to say to you that might be the only way that we are going to be able to protect these animals, and quite frankly if you look at other countries around the world, that’s what they’ve done, that’s what they had to do you know?” 🦁 - @conservation_conversation on Instagram

⚠️Ataque de perros a fauna silvestre⚠️ Zorra culpeo (#Lycalopexculpaeus) . 📍Proveniente de Coihueco #RegiondeÑuble esta ejemplar juvenil fue rescatado por los trabajadores del fundo Pilmaiquén mientras estaba siendo atacada por perros asilvestrados. Luego fue trasladada por personal del #SAG y voluntarios de nuestro centro de rehabilitación. . ⚕ La paciente llegó muy grave con múltiples laceraciones y hematomas ocasionados por las mordeduras de los perros. A pesar de que se hicieron todos los esfuerzos posibles, la paciente no logró sobrevivir y murió debido a la gravedad de sus lesiones. . ⚠️Los perros vagos y asilvestrados son una gran amenaza para la fauna silvestre de nuestro país. Son una de las principales causas de muerte de pudúes, huemules, zorros, pumas, guanacos, vicuñas, entre otros. Además de causar su muerte, pueden transmitir enfermedades infecciosas como distemper, parvovirus y rabia. 🔍Fuente: CONAF . Esta problemática es difícil de resolver, por eso llamamos a tomar conciencia. Puedes ayudar fomentando la tenencia responsable: esterilizar a tus mascotas, llevar un control en sus vacunaciones y nunca abandonarlas. Recuerda que tener una mascota es una gran responsabilidad. Además, puedes conscientizar a tu círculo cercano para así educar a la población y lograr evitar que nuestra fauna termine como este ejemplar de zorro culpeo. - @faunasilvestreudec on Instagram

Did you know there are only roughly 5000 African wild dogs left in the world? They are very susceptible to disease and often the whole pack will die in one go. They are so endangered mostly due to these infectious diseases, ongoing habitat fragmentation, and conflict with human activities. I love spending time with these animals and watching them hunt. They are incredible mammals, and very successful predators as they hunt in packs. #wilddogs #africanwilddog #painteddogsofafrica - @jamessuter on Instagram
Wild dog pups in the Greater Kruger. How sweet are these little guys?? These predators have historically been targeted and persecuted, as they are mistakenly believed to kill mainly livestock. The @endangeredwildlifetrust works in reserves around South Africa to protect these iconic creatures.

‘Long in the tooth’ : Striped hyena. #DidYouKnow : About a decades ago striped hyenas were commonly sighted in the wild. Today, it’s numbers are decreasing. One of the top predators that compete with the other species in the unforgiving landscapes of India are staring at an uncertain future. Their biggest threat? ‘Humans’. I believe that the key to nature & wildlife conservation is the wholehearted support of locals. A strong initiative must be taken.

Meet Florence and her daughter Fierce. Both of them form part of the small but strong hyena clan, that we name Fube Clan, in the GMA outside Liuwa NP. We discovered the clan in 2018 and we have started to collect data on them since. A couple of weeks ago I followed Florence and Fierce on a spectacular hunt! Early in evening they encountered a small herd of wildebeest not far from the communal den. They tested the herd and managed to separate one cow. They pulled her down together and started feeding the way hyenas do🙈😵 I wil spare you the details... . . . #liuwahyenas #fieldwork #fieldresearch #hyenaconservation #hyena #hyenas #hyaena #spottedhyena #hyenaresearch #hyenastudy #wildlifeconservstion #hyenahunt #wildebeest #brutal #motheranddaughter #mothersofinsta #mother #Liuwa #Zambia #zambianwildlife #wildlife #nightphotography #atnight #whatanight @zcp_zambia @liuwaplainnationalpark @wwfzambia @wwf - @life.on.the.african.plains on Instagram

An interesting update from our trackers in Mana Pools. The Nyamepi pack is well and has been doing a great job protecting its 6 pups. Whisky, the alpha female, left the den with the pups on the 26th August and have been nomadic since. She sadly lost one pup to hyenas a day after she became nomadic but the pack has managed to keep their enemies at bay since. They are doing so well compared to last year, where the pack lost 3 pups within 3 days of leaving the den. Fingers crossed, the pack will successfully raise all 6 to adulthood. Currently, the pack consists of 8 adults, one yearling, Candy (a product of father and daughter), and 6 pups that are a product of brother Gamma, the alpha-male, and sister, Whisky. Both are from the same litter of 2017 by the legendary Black-tip. The pack represents the first accurately recorded case of brothers and sisters inbreeding in Mana Pools and, as odd as they may seem, they are slowly rising to prominence in the area. #nyamepipack #mondaymotivation #whisky #gamma #manapools #pdc #savethepainteddog #wildlife #conservation #forwildliferangers Photo Credit: Thomas Mutonhori - @painted_dog_conservation on Instagram

This rustic Luwi Bush Camp stands in a small grove of mahogany trees and has great views over a floodplain to the Luwi riverbed beyond. Although the camp is away from the main Luangwa River, there are two permanent lagoons here, each with an impressive population of hippo and crocodile. This camp houses only 5 chalets which means that individual attention is tailored for each guests’ experience. Each chalet is en-suite. The main area of the camp is comprised of a thatched roof and sandy floor, housing the bar and library. Other communal areas can be found dotted around under trees in the shade. Dinner can be had on the plain or even in the river bed, lunch is served usually underneath a shady spot during the day. - @zamag_tours_and_safaris on Instagram

- Africa is natures greatest kingdom of predators; the savannah has the most large carnivores on Earth. Competition is fierce, & all are kleptoparasites. A leopard and a hyena are near equal; hyenas are 50% larger than wolves and built like small bears, but the big cat is natures ultimate predator.

- Spotted Hyenas rarely die from infectious diseases and are asymptomatic carriers of Rabies. Though it is not completely known why, their environment, repeated exposure, and social structures play key roles.

Imagine seeing that face at night under the moon... this lady was not happy at all with my presence at the den site. She had just returned with a big piece of bone for the little ones to chew on when she gave me this stare! . . . #hynea #hyenasofinstagram #africa #southafrica #krugerpark #krugernationalpark #safari #photosafari #photography #wildphotoafrica #krugerparkphotosafaris #master_shots #animallovers #best_shotz #natgeo #natgeowild #naturephoto #africansafari #instagram #nature #wild #travel #travelafrica #wu_africa #natgeoyourshot #krugerparkpage #discoverwildpaws #ig_southafrica #ig_of_southafricans - @mario_wildphotoafrica on Instagram

- 🔥 Hyenas deserve more love
- African Wild Dogs
spotted hyenas have a bad reputation but these apex predators deserve much more respect than we often give them. Hyenas are critical to controlling prey populations and preventing the spread of disease by consuming entire carcasses. They are also one of the most socially complex carnivores on the planet, forming tightly knit clans that are often led by female Alphas and can number over 100 individuals if the conditions are right. This solo hyena was trotting up the road by herself in Kenya’s @masaimaranationalreserve when I snapped this shot #masaimara #kenya #carnivore #apexpredator #hyenas #conservation #wildlifephotography #sony #protectwildlife - @teo.weyman on Instagram
- Painted wolves populations in the Okavango Delta have been observed rallying before they set out to hunt. Not every rally results in a departure, but departure becomes more likely when more dogs sneeze. When members of dominant mating pairs sneeze first, the group is much more likely to depart.

- Spotted hyena cubs are born all black but gradually shed this lanugo, starting with the head and then spreading down the neck towards the back of their bodies. The rate at which the lanugo is shed can be an accurate way of aging cubs.
- African wild dogs dismember a prey item. The packs eat fast in order to consume as much as possible before other predators steal their kill.
- Although hyenas may look like canines to many, they are actually classified in their own family that isn’t canid or felid, called Hyaenidae. However, being members of Feliformia, they are more closely related to cats than dogs. Instead of a pup, the young hyena pictured here is called a cub.
