🐕 WHAT A DOG’S TAIL TELLS YOU!
Did you know that the African wild dog’s white-tipped tail is more than just a beautiful feature?
That distinctive white tip helps pack members follow one another through thick grass and also plays a role in communication, helping indicate an individual’s mood.
🐾 Watch the tail!
Relaxed: The tail hangs down.
Social interaction: The tail may be raised during social greetings and interactions.
Aggression: A stiff tail can signal aggression.
Submission: A tail tucked between the legs indicates submission.
The next time you encounter a pack of African wild dogs, look beyond their incredible coats and watch their body language. There’s so much to discover when you take the time to observe!
🌍 Your safari, your pace.
