African wild dogs

African wild dogs weigh 55 to 70 pounds. They live 10 to 12 years. African wild dogs eat gazelles and impalas. They live in savannas and woodlands in Africa. African wild dogs sometimes hunt in day light and the evening but mostly in the moonlight. African wild dog spit up because they can get more catches like that. They can reach 60 kilometers per hour during the chase. As soon as a they catch up to their prey it will pull it down if its small enough. If they prey is bigger it will slash its rump to slow it down until more dogs catch up.
