We were staying at Bukisa's camp last weekend when we are woken up by some sniffing around the outside of the tent. To our absolute surprise a young spotted hyena was seen. It soon disappeared in the thicket behind the camp; just to emerge a couple minutes later with yet another friend. However the moment we moved inside the tent they get a very big fright and just ran off as if their lives were in serious danger. Louise told us that spotted hyenas were not introduced to the reserve, but that these newcomers had possibly come in from other farms/reserves adjoining the SanWild Sanctuary. On some of the private properties spotted hyena like cheetahs, wild dogs and leopards are mostly persecuted. Here fortunately the pair will be safe if only they choose to stay and not move on.
