Australian Wildlife Parks

Get to know one of the most underappreciated animals of Africa. Discover how affectionate our Male hyena Cheka is while you are giving him some quality back & belly scratches. This is a rare and unique experience for any animal lover to get close to an apex predator. There are very few hand raised hyenas like Cheka around the world, offering you a highly sort after opportunity to engage with these amazing species. A little about Hyenas. Although the Lion King depicted Hyenas as lowly conniving scavengers, you’ll learn that they’re actually a highly successful hunter with stronger jaws than lions or tigers! Your keeper will expand your knowledge of Hyenas with plenty of amazing facts and of course stories about our very own Hyenas.
