Dominik sent me this extraordinary photo today. The first sighting of a Hyena since 1999. So rare to get such a beautiful close up. This young animal must have been displaced from his pack - it was very hungry.As scavengers Hyenas have suffered greatly from eating poisoned monkeys. Poison is used a lot to kill animals that damage crops. Dominik thinks Hyenas are being lured from far afield by rotting elephant carcasses.
