Cape Hunting Dogs, Botswana, 1997

"Hunting at dusk, adults and pups trot across a floodplain during the Okavango Delta's September dry season. Youngsters four months and older do their best to follow the pack, but older dogs sometimes hide tired pups in the brush, safe from lions, and return for them later."

(Text and photograph from "Africa's Wild Dogs," May 1999, National Geographic magazine)
