Hyaenas have their cubs at any time of year and as they den communally it’s not uncommon to find cubs of different ages in a den. Of course with so many cubs around they’re all playmates. This den had 12 cubs under the age of 12 months which is great news. I’m hoping with the lion numbers being down on Malilangwe, that hyaenas numbers will pick up considerably and soon they’ll be challenging the lions. That’s always a huge party when it happens. Very vocal with both sides trying to out do each other vocally. Can’t wait!

I’ve had the most wonderful day in here in Colorado. Started off kayaking, which I so love. Then I took a 3 and a ½ hour walk up the mountain. The elk are all bugling at this time of year. Pretty cool stuff and I even got a shot of this bull bugling before they took off having seen me.

Getting back to base at sunset I then tried my hand at ice-skating which I haven’t tried since I was at school. That was blast even though I was falling all over the place. And the day was finished off playing around in a gym. Wow what a day!
