    Harshadbhai, good look back stare, and I havent seen this species before. He looks like a cross between a wolf and a large dog - just doesnt have the 'painted ' coat of our wild dogs. That lonely pink flower stands out so well too.

    Nice fur detail and look back pose. The OOF one looking away in the back and the lighter road(?) give it a "chopped off" appearance for me on the right side but I understand the conditions under which you shoot and realize you may have not been able to get another shot from a different angle.

    I love the Indian Dhole, as it reminds me of the African WD!
    Love the lookback pose here Harshad, however, I find the 2nd dhole behind with no separation detracts somewhat as too the pink flower highlight.

    Harshad,

    Wheres the stripes:D?

    You are truly priviliged to see this animal, most of us only get to see them very rarely on TV.

    Whilst they look entirely different from the African Wild Dog I understand that their social structure is remarkably similar, so that puts them very high on my list.

    Pity about the OOF dog in BG, but anything is better than nothing when it comes to Dhole:)
