A Tale of Ruaha’s Wild Dogs
In Ruaha’s vast expanse, wild dogs roam,
Swift hunters in the African home.
Amidst the savannah’s golden hue,
On Fly Ruaha Safari, they greet you.
Their pack, a symphony of grace,
In the sun’s warm and wild embrace.
Through thickets and plains, they stride,
In Ruaha’s beauty, they forever abide.
Their coats, a mosaic of earthy tone,
In the land where the baobabs are grown.
On Fly Ruaha Safari, they take flight,
Guiding travelers through the African night.

In Ruaha’s wilderness, brave and bold.
On wings of adventure, we soar and roam,
In Ruaha’s realm, wild dogs call it home.
