Video: Wild Dogs of Gol Mountain
http://www.go-safari.com/safari_YouTube.htm
Just click on "Watch Video". You can also see the map of the film's location. It is a short series of 3 or 4 videos documenting the Wild Dogs of the Gol Mountain area in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area of Tanzania. "Part 3 - The Hunt" is now on YouTube. Be warned. It is not easy to watch. The other two videos will follow shortly. Part 1 will focus on the glorious scenery and geography of the area. Part 2 will show the dogs at play against a backdrop of very large breeding herds of Wildebeests. |
ah great! i've been looking forward for your videos!
Going to check them out right away.. Do you have a good overview on the pack(s) at the moment? |
whoa. Good stuff!
|
Very cool stuff…from the dog’s point of view!
Curious about those very fluffy white tipped tails -- a seasonal stage or is this status quo for these particular dogs? Are there more videos that just my eyes could not find? Asante, Den |
Great video, pleasure to see the dogs in the wide open space.
Den: vitually every wild dog will have a conspiquous white tip on the tail. It likely helps the dogs keep track of one another while in their team pursuit of prey as well as their long wanderings. |
PredatorBiologist is right; it allows them to hunt when the sun has already set or even in full moon, just because they follow the white tips... ;)

Asante Predator na Nikao.
How nice to have a built in torch as long as your not first in line! Den |
Great video as long, as Den pointed out, you're not a wildebeest. Thanks for sharing this!
