A snared hyena with a deep neck injury was reported, and the next evening our team responded. After hours of waiting at the call-up, the injured male finally appeared close to midnight. The vet darted him, and our thermal drone helped us locate him quickly. The snare was removed, his wound treated, and he’s expected to make a full recovery. 🐾

Huge thanks to a guide from for reporting the sighting and helping save this hyena.
