During an early morning self game drive we came across spotted hyenas on the tar road. Like the wild dogs, they came over to greet us. As they approached we quickly closed the car windows. One of them chewed on our front license plate and one took a look at us thru our back window with its front paws on our trunk. All of our game drives have been in our rented Toyota with the exception of one sunset game drive where we came across a family of Hyenas after dusk.
