Canon 1Dmk4, Canon 300f2.8 IS, handheld. s/speed 1/3200 at f/5.0, iso 800. Ai Servo, single af point selected. Evaluative metering. Cropped, processed in ACR and CS5. Location Linyanti river, Dumatau camp, Botswana. September 2011. Image taken in early morning when the Linyanti wild dog pack were hunting. A single dog flushed this kudu and pursued it for several hundred metres, closing right in quite rapidly. A few frames later the dog had overtaken the kudu, which immediately turned into the river and took refuge in a reed bed. The dog and its pack mates gave up for fear of crocodile attack. The Linyanti pack frequently kill adult female kudu.
I know I have posted a near frame from this chase on another forum, I just could not remember if I posted that similar frame on BPN or not?
All c and c welcome
cheers
Grant
