An interaction between 3 Ethiopian Wolves and a domestic dog playing out. It is likely that the wolves had killed this baby sheep and that the dog (unusually large for Ethiopia) then took it from them. While the dog was feeding on the sheep the wolves were circling, trying to eat scraps. The dog was big enough to keep the wolves at a distance and even chased them away at times. Domestic dogs are serious competitors for food and spread disease like rabies and canine distemper to wolves. Web Valley, Bale Mountains National Park, Ethiopia. © Daniel Rosengren
