About : In Search of the African Wild Dog

In Search of the African Wild Dog is a stunningly photographed and well-documented tribute to these rare and endangered animals, covering their history, biology, distribution, habitat, and breeding and release programme. Both traditional indigenous knowledge and scientific information is included, gathered from meetings with a diverse range of people – from experts on wild dogs to game rangers to sangomas and other traditional healers.
