Animals ( other than humans ) have an amazing sense of smell. I typically take a walk or a light jog with one of my Shepards late evenings. Other day I was walking with Sau my Ridgeback, on a leash so that he doesn’t chase people. He stopped to smell something inside a small thicket. In front of us, about 30 meters away, a rabbit crossed the path and jumped into some long grass and disappeared. Sau, my Shepard , didn’t see him. About 30s later, I signaled him to continue our walk. I had marked the exact spot the rabbit crossed earlier. We walked to the very spot and without stopping Sau picked up the rabbit’s scent and started into bushes to hunt him down.
And now this is a domesticated dog. Can you imagine a leopard or a wild dog.

The beagle is a breed of small scent hound, similar in appearance to the much larger foxhound. The beagle was developed primarily for hunting hare, known as beagling. Possessing a great sense of smell and superior tracking instincts, the beagle is the primary breed used as a detection dog for prohibited agricultural imports and foodstuffs in quarantine around the world. The beagle is intelligent and is a popular pet due to its size, good temper, and a lack of inherited health problems.
Kuna mzee wa kazi, this dog can pick up a scent 3 days old.
I believe we have not even discovered 50% of what animals are capable of. Ever passed near a dam after rain? Every sound you hear is a different ‘tune’ by a frog or a cricket aimed at another of their kind. Isolating the ‘tune’ from a thousand others is akin to you hearing someone say a phrase amid a cheer of a full football stadium. Na saa hio ukumbuke night temperature inversion doesn’t help since all sorts of sounds become more amplified.
What shocks me about dogs is their memory. I love dogs. So when I was a kipii mtu mmoja alikata dog yangu na panga. Mimi kuamka napata doggy whining in pain. Hiyo kidonda nilishughulikia like for two months. Kumbe hiyo doggy imewekea huyo msee grudge.
One day tukiwa ma round, doggy ilikimbilia huyo msee. Nikumumaliza bana. Yaani no matter how I tried to intervene hainiskii. Imemraruria jacket akaangusha maziwa na imekataa na mguu. Baadaye nikamwambia wewe ndiye ulikata my Bosco na panga. Na kwetu huwezi ingia hivi hivi yet a small dog niliacha like one year ago bado kanakumbuka mimi,bibi na watoto. Such things huwa zanishangaza sana. Animal kingdom is one of my favourites. Amazing creatures.
