Hymenoptera...#Mud_dauber

Hyenas clean up the environment by scavenging on the remains of dead animals. They help maintain healthy populations and ecosystems. Hyenas prevent the spread of deseases and also help in recycling nuetrients. They are equiped with powerful jaws, teeth and digestive juices. They can derive nourishments from what other predators leave as "valueless" such as skins and bones. Hyenas recycle bones into culcium components and their faeces turns whitish when dry.

As i get back into the office of guiding after three years of break, on my very first afternoon drive towards Mababe Depression. 3 female lions, one seemed to have cubs hidden somewhere. This is just the beggining of the many sightings to come. Stay posted for more updates on nature insights and more information about tourist destination in Botswana.
