African Wild Dog (Real World)

==Summary==
The African wild dog (Lycaon pictus), also called the painted wolf or Cape hunting dog, is a canine native to sub-Saharan Africa. It is the largest indigenous canine in Africa, and the only extant member of the genus Lycaon, which is distinguished from Canis by dentition highly specialised for a hypercarnivorous diet, and a lack of dewclaws.
The African wild dog is a highly social animal, living in packs with separate dominance hierarchies for males and females. Uniquely among social carnivores, the females rather than the males disperse from the natal pack once sexually mature. The young are allowed to feed first on carcasses. The species is a specialised diurnal hunter of antelopes, which it catches by chasing them to exhaustion. Like other canids, the African wild dog regurgitates food for its young, but this action is also extended to adults, to the point of being central to their social life. Its natural enemies are lions and hyenas.

Work in packs to take down larger animals), Street level kinetic energy (Its kinetic energy should put its attack potency around this level), higher via piercing damage (An African wild dog can bite with a force of over 317 PSI, which is able to break and crush bones, and is stronger than most domestic dogs have. Can easily kill and gore Antelopes and other animalshttps://petcomments.com/ten-dogs-which-have-the-strongest-bite/.

Stamina: Athletic to Peak Human (African Wild Dogs are renowned for their remarkable stamina; They have a remarkable cardiovascular system, possessing a large heart and lungs enabling them to sustain running for long distances. Their body structure is adapted for reducing heat build-up and conserving energy, having a distinctive loping gait that allows them to maintain a steady pace while conserving energy. They can maintain their top speed of 37-44 mph for several miles, which allows them to outlast their prey, which often succumbs to exhaustion before the dogs do)
Range: Standard Melee Range
Standard Equipment: None notable 
Intelligence: High Animalistic. Unlike many other pack-hunting animals, wild dogs of a single pack rarely intimidate or fight one another for position; instead they exhibit behaviors that support the health of the pack over individual members. For example, younger members of the pack who conduct hunts will bring back food for the older members. Similarly, young cubs are raised by all members of the pack including both male and female members. They have more social skills than many other animals
