Excellent Hyena shot Garrett. I don't remember seeing one with stripes before. He don't look very friendly, I think he wants to eat you and your Nikon. Great job, Saved.

As my granddaddy used to say Garrtt: "You sure got a good scald on this one." Perfect in every way.

I do like how you have this beautiful creature in half darkness and half light. It as adds great feel to it.Plus the black back ground brings it forward well done.

A beautiful animal close-up. In the wild these amazing animals seem to get a bad press but they are loyal to their packs and wonderful parents to their pups.
