Fewer than 5,000 wild dogs remain in Africa today and A DOG'S LIFE chronicles the cause behind the impending demise of the wild dogs. Kim and his daughters acquaint themselves with a pack on Malilangwe Reserve in Zimbabwe and spend years filming them. However, things take a turn for the worse when within a year, the entire pack - save for one male adult dog - dies. As an animal epidemic threatens to wipe out this species, the Wolhuters learn an important lesson in urgency and realize the weight of their role as caretakers of the wild.
