@julias.wildlife: Just a Spotted Hyena enjoying some chin scratches 🥰🥺 Some people already feel a shiver of disgust over their body when they hear the word "hyena".. I get that the Lion King didn't really positively contribute to the already bad reputation of hyenas, but ugly?.. disgusting? 🤨🤔 Have a look at that face and tell me if you still find them ugly - with these brown button eyes, the black whiskers that grow from their cute nose. 🥺 I see an animal that deserves our respect and our understanding for taking a part in the ecosystem, no other animal can replace. 🙏🏻 Thank you for spreading some hyena love today. 🐾❤️ P.S. Yes, hyenas are closer related to cats than to dogs, but this does not make them cats. Their closest relatives are mongooses and civets, which are genetically closer to cats. 😊 #animallover #wildplanet #africanwildlife #hyena #spottedhyena
