Hyena drawing by David Dancey-Wood
 
Surprising as it might seem, the Hyena is the main predator in Africa. They make far more kills and are far more active hunting than any other predator in Africa.
 
"Despite the rather despicable reputation I have a great respect for these animals and have always been keen to draw one. I still think the face of the hyena in this drawing is one of a soppy soft animal..."
 
David Dancey-Wood, from his book Pencils patience and primates
