We found a Hooded Vulture perched on a dead Knob-Thorn Tree, and decided we would try and photograph it.” “I switched off the vehicle and we sat waiting for it to fly. With cameras at the ready, and the vulture testing our patience - I noticed an animal standing not more than 40 meters away in a small tributary that feeds into the Sand River.” “To my absolute amazement, it was a wild dog! I couldn’t believe our luck. We put down our cameras and I started up the car and approached the animal. As I slowly approached, I noticed that it was quite inquisitive. We looked in the thickets and noticed a male bushbuck standing there. I knew this would be a tough antelope to bring down for one wild dog.” “Suddenly, out of nowhere, a second and then a third wild dog approached.” “A peaceful wait for the vulture to fly turned into a fierce battle between the wild dogs and a brave bushbuck.” “The bushbuck put up quite the fight but it was inevitably consumed by the wild dogs. It was an incredible sighting. The tactics displayed by the wild dogs were amazing to watch, as well as the fight in the male bushbuck.” To license the footage: [email protected] Get some of our exclusive specials at the Kruger National Park (Free nights): https://www.latestsightings.com/specials Snapchat: LatestSightings Twitter & Instagram: @LatestKruger For live wildlife sightings in the Kruger National Park: https://latestsightings.com/ And like our Facebook page for great sightings and photos: https://www.facebook.com/unsupportedbrowser Subscribe to us on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/LatestSightings
