Remeniscent of the domestic dog at times, they can look playful and cuddly, but make no mistake, these are deadly!!!
They have a bite strength of 800Kg/Sq Cm, which is 40% more than a Leopard can generate.
It also explains how they can bite clean through bone, and therefore tend to 'clean up' after the bigger animals have eaten their kills and left the remains to be picked over.
