. Hyenas of Lamai plains.
In the middle of the vast Lamai plains there exist a water-hole which is used by a clan of about 70 hyenas who have made the surroundings their home. On hot days some of these hyenas would be found lying down in the water-hole to cool off. It is also around this water-hole that they would ambush some animals coming to quench their thirst. Sometimes when a pride of lions that roams the area come to the water-hole and stay put for days, the hyenas give way.
