A closer look

The landscape reveals itself slowly.

A more elusive, largely nocturnal hyena with a shaggy coat and bold dark stripes. This profile is part of a field guide to the mammals included in the supplied Randilen wildlife list. A species appearing here does not guarantee a sighting on any particular visit.

The proposed Slow Safari is built around patient observation and respect for the landscape. Any future activities and wildlife interpretation remain subject to project planning and local permissions.
