I was at Letaba this morning, they confirmed that four dogs were on the lose in that area last week. A team from Skukuza went out and darted the dogs and returned them all safely to the park. \O

Their biggest concern about the dogs is them getting killed for "cultural muti".

They also said that there is a rumour going around that two dogs were spotted in Phalaborwa over the weekend. -O-

Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.

I got this reply from Latest Sightings:
I've asked for an update but haven't heard anything since yesterday. As far as I know they are assumed to have gone into the mountains.

That is terrible Sprocky! What animal here in SA is still safe to roam free, everything has some sort of super power to cure some sort of disease.
Haven't they heard of antibiotics, no shucks this makes me sick

We saw a pack of 6 WD last Monday morning upon exiting Kruger, not even 1km from Phalaborwa gate.....I just hope that rumour is not true

Also got the same reply from Grant from EWT on twitter, suspected to be in the mountains?

Here is some wild dog kiekies of the Skuks pack that we saw last year March(2012), it was at Delaporte and they got hold of on the construction okes gloves and thought that it was a tasty treat... If I remember well they were 18 at the time.
