African wild dogs live in packs, and only the alpha male and female have offspring. The whole pack, which is made up of the older offspring of the alpha pair, takes care of the offspring. There are about 10 offspring in a usual litter and have litters about once every 12 to 14 months, and the puppies reach maturity at 12 to 18 months of age. Most dogs have a lifespan of approximately 15 years, so generally an alpha couple could have up to 130 puppies during their lifetime!
