Wolves at Kadbanwadi, near Pune

Wolves at Kadbanwadi, near Pune

Join me on an early morning trip from Pune to Kadbanwadi to look for the elusive Indian wolf. Waking up at 2 a.m. and driving for three hours was just the beginning of this journey. Kadbanwadi, a semi-arid grassland typical of the Deccan Plateau, may seem barren at first glance, but it teems with life when we look closely.
Despite my tempered expectations, having not seen a wolf since 2012, this trip surprised me. Amid the scrub jungle, we spotted a wolf easily, soon joined by the rest of its pack. This rare encounter was a dream come true, bringing me within five feet of these magnificent creatures.
Throughout the day, we observed these social animals, part of a larger pack in this unique habitat. Indian wolves, a subspecies of the grey wolf, are the apex predators of India's grasslands but face significant threats from habitat loss and human-wildlife conflict.

a. The first 5 seconds of editing - Wow, you have upped your game. Kudos!

b. I had no idea that wolves were elusive, so very happy for you that you saw them after 12 years!

c. Major learning - I did not think of grasslands as ecosystems. They obviously are, but I did not think of them that way. This is similar to my thinking of desert ecosystems (which changed after listening to Arati Kumar Rao's talk)

Totally love what you are doing Anuroop!

Lovely videos and sightings. Loved the footages of the wolves in the water :) …even for me a wolf sighting is more special as they are less then tigers which surely makes them much more special! Long live grasslands !!

New subscriber from pune :-) Few ques 1) Do we need to book an appointment for a guide at Chinkara Vanparyatan Prakalp? 2) What are usual timings this place/drive is open? 3) I assume the "safari" is best with a local guide, right ?

Free ranging dogs or feral dogs also called stray dogs are greatest threats to Indian Wolves in particular and wildlife in general.

I have had several sightings of tiger, two sightings of leopard and one sighting of hyena. Would like to see wolves once.
