A nursing hyena?

  • frizzymom by frizzymom

    I id'd this animal as a spotted hyena, but I don't see spots. Also wondering if she is nursing - looks like full tits underneath. Oh just saw other comments on this. Is it spotted hyena?

    Yes, it's a spotted hyena. The spots aren't always that obvious, but the general appearance of the hyena is, and the spotted is quite distinct from the striped. Spotted hyenas tend to look a bit like a mangy dog to me, not necessarily the beauty queens of the Serengeti! 😉
