Wild Dogs: Pack Vs. Pri

Return to South Luangwa to see the new pups born to the mighty Manzi and the tiny-but-fearless Kakumbi packs. See yearling Snowy face a hungry hyena before a lion pride scatters Manzi mum Weka’s pups and leaves her frantically searching for them.

Run into a lion-hyena showdown with Julz as he hunts for the elusive Manzi pack, who are missing four of their precious pups. Then join Henry from the Zambian Carnivore Programme on a house call to the Kakumbi den, where another pup has gone AWOL.

Join Julz and park scout Simon Chulu as they track the Kakuli pack, who they filmed last year, and a Manzi faction who’ve ditched a tracking collar and broken away from the group. Spot the Kakumbi making a kill before a happy Manzi reunion ensues.

Encounter an elephant as Julz and Henry from the ZCP track the Kakumbi pups, who face off with a stubborn, razor-tusked warthog. Follow Thandie Mweetwa, ZCP’s lion specialist, who counts the prides that are pushing the Manzi out of their territory.

Feel your heart race when the Kakumbi tree a leopard who’s been stalking them. Join Julz on a ZCP lion-collaring mission, go fishing with scout Simon, explore mealtime pack hierarchy, and witness a heartbreaking vigil for a badly injured Kakumbi pup.

Head back to the den with the Kakumbi, who are mourning the loss of two pups. Chance upon a hyena den and a lion pride trying to take down a buffalo, then catch up with the Manzi, who are in a standoff with a leopard and a herd of angry elephants.
