    Looks like a cross between a Hyena and Warthog to me : - ) Thoughts?

    Thanks! So what's with the stripes on the face and lack of fur (compared to the example pics)?

    Actually, the spotted examples do have less fur, the stripes are particularly noticeable on this guy.

    Thanks, quite a different profile, Hyenas are more stocky than I gave them credit for : - )
