Watched a show this pm, on Iowa Public Television [IPT]. It was about an alpha pr of African Black back Jackals. Program was very interesting, they behave just like coyotes.
One thing, I thought was cool. A lone male pup[close to the den site], seen an incoming Hyena. The pup let out a series of intermitant short duration distress howls. The parents, heard this & soon responded running. From quite aways away & drove off the Hyena.
Once the hyena was clear, they all grouped close together & howled. Excellent program /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grinning-smiley-003.gif.
