dhole (Cuon alpinus)

there was a breeding pair and their four pups on display. The pups were very young and the parents had for some reason secreted them under a pile of logs right near the front fence, and hence spent most of their time attacking the wire to try and keep any visitors from coming too close. I saw the pups a few times but they were too quick at disappearing to get any usable photos of, and even the parents were difficult to photograph because of their defensive behaviour.
