spotted hyena (crocuta crocuta) vegeterian! - Masai Mara N.R.- Kenya

Hyenas are formidable hunters (not strictly scavengers as many people

think) with great stamina, strength and determination. They eat their

prey alive (!!) cause unlike their rivals, the big cats, they don't have the

ability to instantly kill their victim through suffication. They start with the

legs (so that the prey can't escape) and progressively continue till only

hornes and hooves remain. A single hyena can consune around 20kg of

meat in a single meal...they eat that much cause they don't know if and

when there is going to be a next meal! Photo taken in Masai Mara

(Kenya), thank you for your comment
