This cute African wild dog tried making friends with the new member of the pack, only to find out it was its own reflection.
A safari goer caught these African wild dogs on camera as they happily padded down a road in the Kruger National Park. There looked to be around six of the dogs in a short convoy, but it’s unknown if this was the full pack.
Pack sizes vary significantly, with the smallest consisting of only two or three individuals, while larger packs can number up to thirty dogs. Available territory and food are large factors in pack size.
They’re nomadic animals that are capable of travelling up to 50 kilometres a day, according to the International Fund for Animal Welfare. Their territories can span a distance of over a thousand square kilometers.
