Vintage Parag, again !!! The build up was so thrilling. I was actually expecting a kill at the end - think we’ll have it in part 2 of this blog. Such a fascinating explanation of the formation and a logical conclusion on the lone Dhole. Truly incredible (not just the images, but also the way you tell your story).
As usual, nice click (amazing pictures of Dholes with eye to eye connect click) with brilliant narration including keynotes e.g., unspoken communication, understanding the individual roles and hunting… without wasting the time... super like...
Are the Dholes from the same family as the African wild dogs? Their hunting is rather brutal compared to the big cats because they don’t wait for the prey to die before devouring it.
The strength of the team is each individual member....the strength of each member is the team....enjoyed this rare species formation and got to know modus operandi....fab pics and narration!
Nice shots..on safaris when everyone is glared in the woods to have a sight of the big cats and endangered species, its very easy to ignore these Dholes…but we all know for ecological balance, they are as important as “the King” himself. It actually was a unique experience to get an insight on Dholes.
Now back to wildlife, with a new animal theme. While reading your blog I thought I was watching Discovery Channel. One of your specialties is that you know how to play with words very well as well as camera, this is possible only when you have a lot of experience because it is not easy to know the movements of animals so closely that which animal is thinking at what time what to do.Wants to know how important it is to keep all these information, you know better, this is a difficult task. There is a big difference between the two, according to me, doing photography only and doing photography after having complete knowledge of the other animals. If you can read the mental level of animals, taking photos is as easy as if you know their movements and you can even set the position for the photo according to your angle, like you did with these wild dogs as You knew that these wild dogs are planning for hunt. His group is divided into parts.Your homework was ready, so that is the reason your blog is great.
Yes sir, these Dholes are very strong and much available in western ghats also. Very ferocious in nature and always in group. The damage they make in our villages also heavy.
These Wild Dogs, known as सोन कुत्ते, in local language are in abundance in Pench Forest. They are considered as so ferocious that even a tiger doesn't dare to tackle them, if these are more than 10 in number in a group.
Nice captures though, as usual Dear. Enjoyed the commentary as well.
Fascinating facts on the Dholes, scheming lots indeed...comprising guile, craft and alliance, eventually resulting in conquest. Engrossing shots and narration.
It looks that the Dholes are excellent strategist and may kill any wild animal by the strength of the group and strategy. Nicely narrated with excellent photographs. Keep it up Parag.

Keep anticipating, Gowar
The trick is in creating that anticipation
Those Dholes do that pretty regularly
I loved the pictures as mostly you see them in the undergrowth , but here they were on the horizon with a great backdrop
Wow awesome pics and nicely narrated Sir !!
Thanks a lot, Sunil

Thanks a lot, Khan
Yes good teams work in conjunction
Not much is spoken but lots is communicated through , unspoken means

Thanks for sharing the beautiful pictures 😀
Thanks a lot, Anshuman
The wild dogs , Asiatic or African have pretty similar behavior traits
Ferocious and ruthless to the core
The African wild dogs look more ferocious due to their painted skin tones
Very nice pics and well narrated sir
Thanks a lot, Sugumar
Dear Parag
As usual, nice pictures with apt narrative. A different topic n species on platter

Thanks a lot, Anshul
You caught the message right
Glad you loved this InFocus
Good information about the Indian wild dogs! And “Chakravyiha”. I like the clicks and narration.
Personally I enjoy close up shots. And with 400 prime lense these pictures are very clear! Good !
Thanks a lot, Shriram
If you love the close up shots , follow Sachin rai on instagram or on fb or check him up on the net
He is one of the Best Wildlife photographers too and I travel on most of trips with him
Sir, Very interesting facts about Dholes. All pics well captured and superbly narrated.
Thanks a lot, Harsha

Thanks a ton, Kapil
Am so happy you are getting engaged with InFocus and appreciating nature and the wild
In the jungle every one has a role to play and all are equally important hence

Thank you so much, Bhupinder
Wild is my genre and I love that and have so many stories to tell
Thought I would take a brief detour and talk about other things like the last one and this one
Am so happy you loved it , you always appreciate it from your heart
Having travelled into the wild a few times I now understand better the behavior of the animals and stay patient with my camera

Yes Bhat
They are highly ferocious and dangerous
Hard to shake them off if they decide on a prey

Thank you so much, Shashank
Yes they are highly ferocious and dangerous too
Hard to tackle them if they get behind a prey
Fascinating facts on the Dholes, scheming lots indeed...comprising guile, craft and alliance, eventually resulting in conquest. Engrossing shots and narration.
Thanks a lot, Prashant
Yes , highly scheming (should we say STRATEGIC, why scheming?) they have to fight to survive ina forest of tigers and leopards
Thanks for appreciating as always
It looks that the Dholes are excellent strategist and may kill any wild animal by the strength of the group and strategy. Nicely narrated with excellent photographs. Keep it up Parag.
Thanks a lot, Gopal
True they are really the Chanakyas of the forest
Glad you loved it
