The Aardwolf
The aardwolf, of the savannas of southern and eastern Africa is related to the hyaenas.
But it lacks their strong jaws and teeth.
It feeds almost exclusively on termites and insect larvae.
It varies its diet with mice and eggs of ground -nesting birds.
It may gain protection by mimicking the striped coat colouring of the hyaena.
