Lycaon pictus – derived from the Greek for “wolf” and the Latin for “painted” , variously called African wild dog, African or Cape hunting dog, painted dog, ornate wolf. Only 3,500-5,500 exist, primarily found in southern and eastern Africa.

Nearly 80% of all wild dog hunts end in a kill ; for comparison the success rate of lions, often viewed as ultimate predators, is only 30%. They have the highest bite force quotient (BFQ, the strength of bite relative to mass) of any carnivore.
