African Wild Dogs: The Lives and Loss of the Painted Wolves

Lycaon pictus is native to many areas of Sub-Saharan Africa. All three species have many similar features, as they are classified as animals, chordates, mammals, carnivores and canines with wolves and domesticated dogs (Woodroffe & Sillero-Zubiri, 2012 ). Lycaon pictus translates as "painted wolf" pointing to unique brown, gold, black and white spots on their coat that can identify individuals.

Faith Mohnke: "I saw an African wild dog participating in National Geographic's computer program for the first time when I was 7, I like dogs, I find these wolf in Africa Animals are called "dogs" and I am on board I understand wild dogs in Africa and understand their behavior and instincts. Biological Species Endangered Currently, less than 6,600 wildlife lives, but we already know that these beautiful creatures have been active in this world for 18 years. Let people recognize that their consciousness is higher than adventure among us all. I already know what kind of animals I want to express. "

One reason why so many wolves live in captivity is that people think that wolves behave like dogs, so they can become good pets because dogs and wolves belong to the dog family. It is that. But wolves are wild animals, they can be sociable like the inhabitants of Mission: Wolf, but they are not domesticated like dogs. After mass extermination, the dinosaur era has reached the end and new looters will change. One of them is a small arboretum called Miacis which is not only a common ancestor of wild dogs but also a common ancestor of foxes, raccoons and bears. Hesperocyon evolved from Miacis. It has a long tail walking on its toes and has a structure of teeth resembling that of a modern wolf. Soon it came to Tomarctus. Tomarctus looks more like a dog and opens the way for the wolf.

For a long time, African wild dogs and painted dogs had a very bad misunderstanding. Therefore, there are less than 450 dogs in South Africa. The fierce roar of a wild dog is one of the most cruel ways of murder, and unfortunately this happens frequently in our wilderness. There are many protection groups throughout Africa working to protect the natural habitat of wild dogs in Africa. In South Africa, the only surviving population in Kruger National Park, the endangered wildlife trust is sponsored by an important monitoring and reintroduction program. They successfully reintroduced wild dogs into the park and hope to keep doing this wonderful job.
