@yizhouwoong1626 that's only recent times, back in the day when wild dogs had packs of 100-200 only 50 years ago they dominated Africa. A clan of hyenas were nothing to them and a pride of lions wouldn't challenge than many dogs either...

@masoodrahimi6083 actually they had up to 200 in their historic pack size

@masoodrahimi6083 I cant link it, YouTube deletes the link everytime I post it. Just type in "wild dogs in a pack." You'll find it. That source states other sources and it mentions 200 in a pack

@masoodrahimi6083 what was the website u seen?

@masoodrahimi6083 you literally have to read the whole thing, you probably skimmed through instead of reading it in full. They also state sourced from the 1800s

@masoodrahimi6083 told u, the source i had literally said 200 dogs. But YouTube keeps deleting it. YouTube is becoming stranger each day

@masoodrahimi6083 Gordon cumming, go read his books. He literally states that he seen "bands of several hundred." When observing wild dogs. Me saying 200 is low-balling and being very reserved. Several hundred is likely mire than 200 but the lowest several hundred could mean is 200... And others state it too but I cant find their names specifically. Its so hard to fund information about authors from centuries ago about an unpopular/not loved animal

@masoodrahimi6083 But I've found out that one of the reasons why they are nomadic is because when they hunt no other predator causes so much panicking. This panic and scattering means there is a lack of food supply for them so they are forced to move and find more food. I knew they were feared but I didn't know it was on that level

@masoodrahimi6083 lol I just looked at the definition of several and it means more than 2. Meaning more than 200 wild dogs. I was wrong 😂😂😂😂

@masoodrahimi6083 Mate listen to your own words. The mid 20th century was when their numbers already started going down so 70-80 individual's makes sense. My sources are from before. Gordon cumming died 20 years before the mid 20th century 😂, being born in 1848 he's older than any source that you've been looking through. My point isn't that they didn't go around in packs of 80, I'm saying that when you look even further into the past of 19th century recordings their pack sizes are over 200. Several hundred literally means 300 minimum...

@masoodrahimi6083 Can I see your source that talks about 500 dogs in a pack
