I'm not really sure why I've lumped these animals together on one page but it seemed a good mix at the time and they are, apparently two of the Ugly 5 (the other three being wildebeest, vultures and maribou stork).

First up, a couple of hyenas that were slinking about.

I like warthog - particularly when they are running with their tails at right angles to their bodies.

We came across this pack of hyena whilst driving around. I didn't realise they liked water until we saw them padding.

Whilst we were moving from Dunia to Namiri Plains when we came across this mum and two very hungry pups. She was amazingly patient with us taking lots of photos.

This was the cheekiest of the two pups.

Another game drive found this hyena (with a couple of others) enjoying the spoils of a kill.
