Well, its one of those days - our connection is down so no video post today. What we can do however is come up with a name for our Wild Dog pack. We’ve added this as a poll on the right hand side of the site. Vote for your choice or an a new option - ours are pretty lame.
Here are some tips about the pack:
Mupanigawa is the area they denned in.
There are 21 in the pack.
There were 2 litters of pups of 6 each. (Six Pack)
They operate mainly in the north.
See what you can come up with - let me know the reasons for your choice in the comments of this post.

Malilangwe’s stunning array of waterbirds strut their stuff in the shallows of Malilangwe dam against the backdrop of another magnificent African sunset.
Its a hive of activity around the fishmarket (dam) with lots of different species plying their trade.
This Goliath Heron is nesting on the dam.
This Pied Kingfisher is also casing the joint…

Yellow-billed stork, spoonbills, Egyptian Geese and other feathered fishermen are in action around the shallows of Sosigi Dam (:map:) in this clip.
We came across this elephant bull which had lost the tip of his trunk, probably in a wire snare some time back when he moved off the Malilangwe property. The prehensile tip of the trunk acts like fingers on a hand and allows the elephant fine control over small objects like fruit and thin branches. See how he has had to adapt the way he feeds and grasps objects..
Some more elephant photos for you to enjoy
We launched a new feature this week, namely Polls. You’ll see one there on the right-hand sidebar. Use it to tell us what you think we should be filming next now that it looks like the Wild Dogs have headed off from their den.
We’re also using the poll to test your bush knowledge. Here’s the first brainteaser which you whould ave seen if you’d been following the conversation on :flickr:
