Jackal vs Brown Hyena

"Bold as brass..." This black-back jackal was not very happy about a young brown hyena coming for a drink so he decided that action had to be taken!
Cubitjie Quap in Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park is well know for its Jackal activity. We were at the waterhole watching the Jackal attempting to catch doves and sandgrouse drinking. The jackal are really territorial and there were clearly a couple of jackal that had the hunting rights to the waterhole and were not keen to allow any of their brethren access. We however never expected that the jackal would have the guts to stand up to a brown hyena! As soon as the brown hyena arrived at the waterhole, the jackal started howling and getting really upset. The hyena then had a really uncomfortable time quenching its thirst as the a black-back jackal decided that action had to be taken and started nipping the hyena's heels.

The hyena was like: oh, just another fly.

[@clydepratt250]

Jackal was getting a mouthful of hair and the brown hyena hardly noticed! Lol

[@KingaKucyk]

This is the most chill Hyena I've ever seen 😎

[@NoneRain_]

Jackal: doing its best
Hyena: ...

[@kenmasters2231]

Brown hyena is looking around for some real predators.

[@jansolo55]

Of course !! That Jackal is certainly not one of them .... 😂

[@ritemolawbks8012]

LMAO I was about to say the same. He probably doesn't even know the jackal is pissed.

[@92clintonr]

Bet those flies bother the hyena more than that jackal was.

[@samrizzardi2213]

There's a video of a brown hyena single-mindedly bowling through a whole pack of African wild dogs in order to get at their kill. Absolutely crazy animal.

[@anoopanu2446]

Brown hyena look like an animated one 😁

[@averageordinaryguy312]

I don't know a lot about hyenas but there seems a huge difference in the aggressive of a Brown vs. Spotted Hyena.

[@ritemolawbks8012]

These ones are anti-social and smaller, but they still can crush bones. The demeanor changes and they turn aggressive when they see food or a strange hyena.

Humble Hyena has cows nerves

[@megaball-ps8tq]

Trollers in a nutshell

[@s1s135]

The Jakal goes come on boy, bring something down and we both eat it. Basically using he’s force. Jakal goes in easy and just eat......

[@wungoodguy]

"What is this... a flea biting me? Off with you, scrawny jackal! Before I put you in your place."

[@Hbmd3E]

Hyena: flies all over my forehead, Jackal nipping me. . but i have a water what a blessing.
