Kathy Boles and her husband spent 12 days in the African Savannah, camping with 8 other volunteers and every African wild animal you could imagine. Her story will educate you about the recent research the group conducted on the African Hyena and their interactions with local farmers and other wild animals. They conducted wildlife surveys on foot and from vehicles, not only looking for hyenas, vultures and insects, but also for their tracks, droppings, feeding sites, dens, nests and other signs. The trip was through a group called Earthwatch and is available for anyone to participate.
