Hyaena Hyaenas Predatory Scavenger South Africa Waterhole Waterholes Hyaenidae
Caught in the Act - The Wild and Wacky World of Spotted Hyaenas!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this hilarious snapshot, Alan Weaving perfectly captures the essence of a mischievous Spotted Hyaena at Kousant waterhole. With its comically puzzled expression and playful stance, it's hard not to chuckle at this cunning predator's antics. Native to sub-Saharan Africa (excluding rain forests) but absent from southern areas of South Africa, these hyaenas are known for their scavenging skills and relentless pursuit of food. However, don't let their reputation fool you – they also have a softer side! This single hyaena seems to be enjoying some downtime by the waterhole in Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park. With its unique coat pattern resembling polka dots gone wild, this spotted beauty stands out among other wildlife mammals. Its presence adds an extra touch of excitement to national parks across South Africa and beyond. Alan Weaving's print is a delightful reminder that even in the animal kingdom, there is always room for laughter and lightheartedness. So next time you find yourself exploring the African wilderness or simply daydreaming about exotic adventures, remember our spotted friend here – he knows how to keep things fun!
