Canids and Hyaenids Predation

[Rage2277]

The chase!

Three Wild Dogs were on the hunt, chasing a herd of Spotted Deer and then Barasingha.

Usually, when the prey senses danger, they give out warning calls, but this time, there were none. That's because unlike cats, who rely on the element of surprise to hunt, wild dogs course over long distances in pursuit of their quarry, and the deer prefer to put as much distance between themselves and the dogs rather than stand their ground alarming as they would for a tiger or leopard.

This time, the wild dogs made two attempts at the deer and then relaxed. It was super exciting to witness one of the top predators of the Indian jungles in action! Reply
