You can spend years in the bush and never see anything like this, so Grant Fendick and his family can count themselves rather fortunate.
That being said he has been going to the Pilanesberg Game Reserve for 15 years without seeing a single wild dog, so perhaps he was due.
As you can imagine he was pretty stoked, and he shared his story with Traveller24:
Fendick says he was driving along Black Rhino Concession in the Pilanesberg during a visit in March, when he came across this truly once in a lifetime sighting…
“We had come across three cheetah brothers that had just killed a wildebeest. We were enjoying this incredible sighting since cheetahs are an extremely rare sighting in the Pilaneserg. We noticed how the cheetahs seemed very skittish and nervous, they had obviously sensed something was out of place.”
That’s when this sighting went from rather rare to super incredible. Fendick says the group excitedly caught a glimpse of an approaching pack of wild dogs.
Check out this rare encounter:
Dog beats cat, which isn’t something you see around the house all too often.
