Superb pics yet again, Impisi. :clap: :clap: :clap: Nothing like spotting one of the most endangered carnivores in Africa! Mayn animals can be "though-out" and found, I feel, with some research and intelligence, but seeing wild dog is often pot-luck.

I have been extremely lucky with wild dog sightings over the past two years, with dogs at least every second trip! Lots of sightings on the H1-1, H3 around Afsaal as well as south of Biyamiti on the S114. The H7 Orpen-Satara is also a stand out road for me as well as the S126 Sweni road. Got them a couple of times on the H4-1 Skukuza-Lower Sabie periodically. :dance:

Very lucky U_D. I have seen the doggies on my last 6 trips spread over about 8 years.

As a matter of interest, UD, do you go out at gate-open, or a little later in the morning? And primarily winter or summer?

My last sighting of the doggies was mid morning, but I have seen them 20 minutes after gate opening, and late afternoon, so there is no real 'best time' for them.

Floating wild dog!!!

I must admit to being very lucky with the doggies ... I've seen them early morning, midday, late afternoon ... Chase the sightings board and you may get lucky!
