I was a dream to capture a wild dog kill throughout my travels in Africa. I was fortunate to engage a hunting pack of African Wild Dogs (also known as painted dogs) at first light in South Luangwa National Park in Zambia. African Wild Dogs are pack hunters using speed and stamina to hunt with and boast a prolific kill rate of around 80%. They have a complex social structure and each pack member plays a vital role, contributing to the overall success and survival of the pack. Painted dogs are listed as endangered. Technical: Nikon D500, Nikon 400mm G lens with 1.4 extender, 1/1600, f5.6, iso250.
