The Big Message: African Wild Dogs teach us that the strongest people aren't the ones who go it alone - they're the ones who stick together and support each other. This hoodie is for kids who want to be known as loyal, trustworthy friends who always have their pack's back.
What makes the African Wild Dog so special? African Wild Dogs are some of the most loyal and teamwork-focused animals in the world! They live in packs where every member looks out for each other. When one dog gets hurt, the whole pack takes care of them. When they hunt, they work together perfectly like a sports team. African Wild Dogs never leave a pack member behind and they make decisions together by actually "voting" with special sneezes! They teach us that being loyal to your friends and family is one of the most important things you can do.

Where do African Wild Dogs live and how are they doing? African Wild Dogs live in the grasslands, savannas, and semi-deserts of Africa, mainly in Botswana, Tanzania, and Zimbabwe. There are only about 6,000-7,000 left in the wild, making them one of Africa's most endangered animals. They need lots of space to roam with their packs, but their homes are getting smaller. When we learn about African Wild Dogs and support conservation efforts, we're helping protect these amazing team players for future generations!
