Having worked in Nigeria, this is completely normal for that bizarre place.... pet hyena, pet baboons, pet pythons - yep, pretty normal... If you are a western European or North American, this is unnerving. I enjoyed the article on this as well. Seems we in the west think of the animal first and not the person. WE have no clue what it is like to try and survive in a place/country like this. | |||

Years ago there was another group, in Ethiopia I believe, where they would take people out to the garbage dumps to feed the Hyenas. I saw Andrew Zimmern of Bizzare Foods try feeding them by placing some long pieces of meat in his mouth and the Hyena would come up and pull it out. The black dude that helped him do that stunt for the camera was subsequently killed by the same pack of Hyenas a few months later. | |||

Had Michael Vick only been using hyenas, in Nigeria .... JEB Katy, TX Already I was beginning to fall into the African way of thinking: That if you properly respect what you are after, and shoot it cleanly and on the animal's terrain, if you imprison in your mind all the wonder of the day from sky to smell to breeze to flowers—then you have not merely killed an animal. You have lent immortality to a beast you have killed because you loved him and wanted him forever so that you could always recapture the day - Robert Ruark DSC Life Member NRA Life Member | |||

Nasty buggers. Culling crop raiding buff in wheat fields near Timau on northern slopes of Mount Kenya. Land Rover stuck in pig hole at last light. Long walk back to farm in the dark with fisi obviously trailing close behind. Only two rounds of .458 left. Then torch fails. | |||

I'm fairly certain that I know the guy in the right front with the Pit Bull X Greyhound cross. If I'm right his name is Willy and he moved from NY to Nigeria back around 2000 or so. He kept the same kind of cross bred dogs when he lived here to catch deer with. He would spotlight deer and turn his dog loose on it. Amazingly effective poaching technique.
