Spotted Hyena
See if you can Spot the Hyenas of Harar during your visit to Experience Ethiopia!
Spotted Hyena are extremely intelligent and social animals, often living in large groups known as a clans. Their call sounds a lot like laughter – they do this when they are excited but nervous, when submitting to another hyena or when alerting others about food. Their ‘laugh’ is one of about 12 different vocalisations and their call can be heard from over 5 km away.
