Track the world's rarest canid in the stunning Bale Mountains, where these red-coated wolves hunt giant mole rats in Afro-alpine meadows above 3000 meters. With fewer than 500 individuals left in the wild, spotting these beautiful predators requires patience and high-altitude hiking, but the ethereal mountain landscape makes the journey unforgettable.
