Lycoan pictus, translates to painted wolf, regionally aka lycaon, African wild dog, African hunting dog, Cape hunting dog, hyena hound, hyena dog, ornate wolf, painted dog
IUCN African Parks wild animal populations, Painted Wolf 1,400 Adults; Black Rhino 5,500; Cheetah 7,000; White Rhino 21,000; Lion 34,000; Spotted Hyena 47,000; Giraffe 97,000; Impala 2 Million
African Journal of Wildlife Research 2020 - Kruger area averages 163 adult and yearling painted wolves (3 year lifespan), the KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo, Mpumalanga provinces average 79 total
similar to renaming killer whales to orca, many conservationists prefer using the name painted wolf derived from its binomial name Lycaon pictus
Africa once had over 500,000 painted wolves, packs of 100 were common, humans and lions are the main threats to painted wolves
painted wolves are not 'vicious, brutal, savage' they are only trying to survive, painted wolves (Lycaon pictus) are not feral dogs (Canis familiaris) or hyenas
there are no records of painted wolves attacking humans in the wild
painted wolves do not fight over food, and will help feed their injured pack members
the regional 'wild dog' name contributes to the common misconception that painted wolves (Lycaon pictus) are feral dogs (Canis familiaris)
painted wolves have powerful jaws with specialized carnassial teeth to quickly slice and consume prey before kleptoparasites arrive, the prey dies quickly from shock or loss of blood
painted wolves pack members do not fight over food, they will help feed their injured, are rarely known of outside the African safari industry

A 20-Year Review of the Status and Distribution of African Painted Wolves (Lycaon pictus) in South Africa
February 2020 African Journal of Wildlife Research 50(1):8
DOI:10.3957/056.050.0008
South Africa is one of only seven countries with a viable population of African painted wolves (Lycaon pictus).
The national population in 2017 was 372 adults and yearlings and comprised three subpopulations:
1) Kruger National Park (Kruger),
2) an intensively managed metapopulation established through reintroductions into isolated, fenced reserves, and
3) a free-roaming population that occurs naturally outside protected areas.
We assessed the long-term (four painted wolves generations, ∼20 years) trends in population size and growth rate within each of these three subpopulations.
We found that Kruger supports a substantial population, which has declined over time.
The meta-population is the only subpopulation that has increased significantly over time (both in population size and number of packs), likely due to intensive conservation efforts and the reintroduction of painted wolves into 15 additional reserves since 1998.
The free-roaming subpopulation has remained small but stable, even though the number of packs has declined due to threats from humans.
The overall national population has remained stable even though the number of packs has increased. Kruger has consistently supported the highest proportion of the national population over the last two decades.
However, the contribution of the metapopulation has increased significantly over time.
It is clear that despite differences in survey effort among the three subpopulations, South Africa has a small (∼500) but stable population of painted wolves, with the metapopulation contribution becoming increasingly important.
The circumstances in the country necessitate, and demonstrate the benefit of, intensive, adaptive management for the national population of painted wolves.
While this assessment provides baseline information for the three subpopulations, painted wolf conservation in South Africa would benefit greatly from equal survey effort and standardized methods to accurately assess long-term population trends.
