Sorry I am somewhat sceptical about that hyaena cub supposedly being fed. If the person filming it truly wanted to expose a wrong doing in the Park why do they studiously avoid showing the number plate. I wonder if this was even reported or another attention seeker?

Spotted it around 4 times in 3 days and it did walk up to a car like a beggar once. Looks young and I have a pic which indicates a potential problem/sick \O (will post pics when I sort them out)
