The Sanetti Plateau, Ethiopia.

The largest high altitude plateau In Africa and home to the critically endangered Ethiopian wolf. I had to run a fair distance to catch up with the pack to capture this image. My lungs where burning but it was worth it!

This is something I did not know that we have wolves in Ethiopia, what an experience to see these lovely animals. Love the red colouring with black tails. Very envious of you seeing this @timspawls

Thanks @joanstewart. We do indeed. They where called Simien foxes for a while but DNA test have proved they are true wolves. They hunt rodents up there so although they live in packs the hunt alone. I grew up in Ethiopia so I have been lucky enough to see them many times :)

Very interesting to know, thanks for the details. Ethiopia is such a beautiful part of Africa, lucky you growing up there.

You are welcome! I am indeed ; )

What an effort to take this amazing image! Thank you so much for your contribution. Tomas
