hyena puppies

Hyena puppies are really cute. There is a den on Oryx plain where the adults come back and all the pups come our every night around 5:30pm. Very cute to watch. I have some really good video of them playing together too.

 These ones are a little older and starting to change to their adult fur.

 But there is also a litter of tiny ones that are still all black. There are at least 4 like this one.

 And I even managed to catch a photo of this one yawning.

I also went on a walk with some of the Earthwatchers to the marsh one day. Here I am with Jim, Paul, Eric and Kim. There are elephant behind us, but I don't know if you can see them in the distance in this small photo.
