Spotted Hyena, Near Okavango Delta, Botswana
Pesky Mosquitoes

Species: Spotted Hyena | Location: Near Okavango Delta, Botswana

We came back to visit a hyena den several times when we were at this location. This is a young pup rolling in the sand. If you look close you can see many flying insets pestering him.
