Meet The Packs

A Close Encounter

Feel the heat as rising temps mean that water is getting scarce. The Manzi pack must stand alongside predators to hydrate at a remaining precious water spot. Hunt with Weka’s pack to feed the pups, and watch the Stork Colony thrive against all odds.

Agonize over a lost Stork pack puppy, and tussle with Manzi pups who are sorting their place in the hierarchy, figuring out noisy-neighbour friends and foes. Hop on a search mission with Julz for the missing Kakuli pack in the desolate Badlands.

Stork Pack in Trouble

Dodge a leopard with the Manzi dogs while they treat themselves to a stolen feast. No such luck for the Kakuli pack on the hunt, as they’re foiled by a brave puku antelope. Find the Stork pack, and retreat from charging elephants with Jules and Simon.

Big Cats, Big Trouble

Film a wild dog hunt with Julz as he catches up with the Manzi pack at a kill, and watch for leopards and hyenas as the Kakuli pack takes great risks while waiting for the rains to come. Go on an epic hunt with a returning male of the Stork Colony.

The Lost Boy

Welcome the rains as an emotional Julz says farewell to the dog packs. He discovers the Stork Colony pups hunting guinea fowl, and is heartened to find the Kakuli pups feeding on an antelope carcass. The playful Manzi pack corner a tough warthog.
