Range & Habitat. The majority of African wild dogs live in eastern and southern Africa, with the largest populations in Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Namibia. Only two isolated populations remain in the western part of the continent. In central Africa, they live only in the Central African Republic and Chad.
In the middle of the 20th century, 500,000 African wild dogs were spread across sub-Saharan Africa. Today between 3,000 and 6,000 animals remain. Most are limited to the south and east of their original range. The African wild dogs at the Oregon Zoo are part of the Species Survival Plan administered by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA).
