Whistling Hunters

The Indian wild dogs or the dholes are also known as the whistling dogs are highly social and stay in packs numbering anywhere from 2 to 20 or even more. They often hunt in packs and are known to down preys double their size in co-ordinated attack. During my trip to Kabini last year did photograph a pack of 7 dogs going out on a hunt and here are few images of them





This images shows 6 of the dogs in a frame crossing the road that runs in the forest













This was taken as they came out of the bush ... playfully















Two of the dholes relaxing beside the road










They produce a whistle sounding coo -coo and hence they are known as whistling hunters
