The other day in the Serena North clan, we had time to watch
an adorable group of cubs and subs playing together. Scientifically, play behavior is interesting
because it expends valuable energy, and yet does not immediately benefit the
individuals involved. Personally, I
think romping and social play is one of our spotted hyenas’ cutest
activities. This time, we got to see a
special kind of play behavior…cubs playing with elephant dung!

I love UZI (and the rest of these cubbies)!!!
Thanks for the super cute photos and updates about north cubs/subs.
Are TEDY and GUMY still doing well!?!
We haven't been seeing Tedy and Gumy very much lately, and they have entered the unbelievably fluffy stage, but we've seen them both in the past couple of weeks and they look good!
