A Wild Dog's Tale is the amazing true story from Okavango of a lone female African wild dog who has lost her entire pack. In her need for companionship she befriends rival hyenas and jackals to create a new pack for herself. She not only hunts with them but also provides food to help raise the jackal pups. Her desire for her own offspring is so strong she even kidnaps several jackal pups. But when a new pack of wild dogs suddenly appears she has to make a choice – to join them or stay with her jackal family.
