From the EWT FB page:

Sad news from the Kruger Wild Dog Project. The Alpha Female from the Berg en Dal pack has a snare around her foot. Field worker on the project, Grant Beverley, is watching her and waiting for the vets to arrive to treat her. We hope she is ok.... the other pack members are licking the wound and tending to her.

Happy to update that all is ok!
She's back with the pack!

Nice of one of our spotters to report it, it saved her life!

Thanks, Odie! \O

They are very difficult to keep track of and move great distances, often outside the Park! 0*\

I think that's the Phabeni gate access road, or something like that. Not the N4. :-?
