On a stretch of river, a herd of about 15 crocodiles was eating a dead giraffe. At the same time, a pack of wild dogs tries to steal food.
Wild dogs tried to pull the giraffe out of the water and this was also when the competition was fierce.
When the animal’s body was dragged to the water’s edge, the pack of wild dogs could not continue because the body was too heavy. They began to rush to tear despite the fierce crocodiles trying to take their share. Wild dogs on one side and crocodiles on the other.
Both species try to fill their stomachs before thinking about fighting.
The African wild dog (Lycaon pictus), also called the painted dog or Cape hunting dog, is a wild canine which is a native species to sub-Saharan Africa. It is the largest wild canine in Africa, and the only extant member of the genus Lycaon, which is distinguished from Canis by dentition highly specialised for a hypercarnivorous diet, and by a lack of dewclaws. It is estimated that about 6,600 adults (including 1,400 mature individuals) live in 39 subpopulations that are all threatened by habitat fragmentation, human persecution, and outbreaks of disease. As the largest subpopulation probably comprises fewer than 250 individuals, the African wild dog has been listed as endangered on the IUCN Red List since 1990.
The species is a specialised diurnal hunter of antelopes, which it catches by chasing them to exhaustion. Its natural enemies are lions and spotted hyenas: the former will kill the dogs where possible, whilst hyenas are frequent kleptoparasites.
Like other canids, the African wild dog regurgitates food for its young, but also extends this action to adults, as a central part of the pack’s social life.[5][6][7] The young are allowed to feed first on carcasses.
The African wild dog has been respected in several hunter-gatherer societies, particularly those of the San people and Prehistoric Egypt
