I've posted a few from this sighting over in the Wildlife Forum but I thought I'd combine them in a Story Sequence thread for Gabriela and maybe add in a new one too.
We heard that the wild dogs were spotted in the Timbavati Game Reserve. We had a distance to go to get there and there were no guarantees they would stay put. We got to the sighting and the pack was 25+ strong but when we arrived they were mostly resting in the shade. Another vehicle had stayed with them until we arrived. Shortly after that vehicle left some of the dogs started to rise and stretch. Soon one ventured into the dam and then another and another. They spent over a half hour frolicking and chasing each other through the water and on the bank. We quickly moved to the opposite side of the waterhole/dam and were treated to a fantastic and memorable sighting.
Thanks for looking,
Rachel
