I (foolishly) removed the screenshot app from the dock two days ago. I want it back, but I cannot find the app in the applications folder so I cannot drag it to the dock. I learned that I can still capture images by (command+shift+5) but I find it easier to initiate the capture by opening the app by clicking on it in the dock.
Can anyone tell me how to restore the app to the dock under these circumstances? Thanks.

Another way is to press command + spacebar. Enter Screenshots. When the app opens, notice it's showing in the dock. Right click it, choose options, Keep in Dock. This method works for any other app as well.

The Screenshot.app is in the Applications > Utilities Folder and you should be able to drag a shortcut from there to your Dock.
Choose Utilities from the Finder's Go menu and drag it back from there.

Thanks. That was most helpful. Problem solved.
I did not use this but it was useful to know of its existence for the future.
Best of luck my friend.👍🏽
