Phalaborwa has historically been a stronghold for wild dog, although not so much in recent decades! \O

The park's biggest pack ever, a combined one of 50, was seen near Malopene to the north.

just before the nhlanganini loop .......way ahead in the distance i see two jackal...

one adult and one junior... and they ran in different directions ..

shortly before an oncoming vehicle zoomed past them..

:evil: :evil:

i went on up ahead slowly looking on either side of the road..

then i saw something in the under growth...

Image

a juvie jackie.............................


Image

then in the road ahead was the concerned parent who seemed desperate to find it's offspring.

it was running ahead of me.............

and then i noticed that it was cantering almost like a dog........ :shock: :shock: :shock:

not trotting along as most jackals normally do...

then noticed why.......

it was a side striped jackal.......
