A series of wild-life programmes
Introduced by Peter Scott

The hyena, with its weird laughter, is one of the scavengers of Africa. How do these strange, timid creatures live? Mervyn Cowie, Director of the Royal National Parks of Kenya, tells their story, and the film looks at animal life in Africa from the hyena's point of view.
