Wild Dogs sometimes face intense competition from spotted hyenas that will team up with one another to push the dogs aside.
This makes speed very important when they feed to avoid the kill being stolen.
A pack of wild dogs is usually able to keep hyenas at bay because some of the dogs concentrate on guard duty while the others feed.
The larger the pack of dogs, the better their chances of keeping spotted hyenas at bay.
They do not fight with each other like lion and hyena do during feeding. They can eat 100 kilograms of meat from an adult kudu in 15 minutes.
A very important part of the wild dog hunting and feeding behavior is the division of the spoils after a successful hunt.
Some dogs do not participate in the hunt because they remain behind at the den to guard puppies.
When the pack returns from the hunt, these dogs will beg food from other members.
It does this by grinning, nudging and nibbling their lips, licking their faces, lowering its forequarters and raising its tail.
Puppies will usually be fed first. Sick and injured African wild dogs also receive a share of meat for as long as they remain with the pack.
So can we conclude from this pack behavior that wild dogs are very social animals?
Yes - these African animals live in packs that can consist of anything from two to over fifty dogs.
Most packs have about between 12 to 20 adult members.
A dominant male and female known as the alpha pair will head the pack.
This pair will in the vast majority of cases, account for all the breeding activity.
All pack members will help raise the pups.
The rest of the pack will consist of the offspring of the current or previous alpha pair.
Wild dogs are unusual in that it is the females who leave their birth pack at 14–30 months of age and join other packs that lack sexually mature females.
The males remain in their pack to become helpers.
This is unusual because the opposite is usually true with social mammals, where a group of related females usually forms the core of the social group.
Below the alpha pair there is no definite hierarchy.
Submissiveness and not aggression, is the deciding factor during wild dog social interactions.
A typical example of this is displayed when a dog who wants a piece of meat after a hunt.
The dog will beg for some meat with head and forequarters flat to the ground, hindquarters raised, ears flattened to its head and lips drawn back..
