Sambar and dholes

[Sabyasachi Patra]

I had photographed this in Bandipur. The sambar herd had got into water and the dholes were trying to find a way to attack one of them, especially the fawn. So two sambars came forward and started stamping their feet in the water. This is before one of the sambars charged at the dholes. You have seen some of those shots earlier.

Canon EOS 1D Mark II, Canon EF 400mm F2.8 L IS USM, EF 2xII, ISO 400, 1/60, f5.6, full frame.
