Indian Wolf with Black Buck Kill.
This was a wonderful unexpected sighting at Velvadar.There are 23 wolves in Velvadar and it is very difficult to sight even a single one.On one morning safari we suddenly saw this wolf in relentless pursuit of a pack of female bucks.The pursuit lasted for 5 minutes .The momentum and speed of the chase could be compared to that of the cheetah chasing its prey in Africa. We thought the bucks would get away .But the stamina and speed of the wolf was stupendous.The wolf isolated and pursued a single female and in a flash had and brought her down with a single leap in a cloud of dust.All this took place far beyond the scope of any lens.But luckily he moved with the kill towards a copse of Keekar trees which came within clicking distance.Posting one image.
