Reserve rangers arrived within minutes. With careful hands, they freed the calf from the wire while Jackson and the tourists watched in stunned silence.
As soon as the calf was safe, the hyenas began to slip away into the grasslands, fading like ghosts back into the golden fields. They had gotten what they came for and now they were gone.
That day, every person on that jeep learned something unforgettable: Sometimes, even nature’s most feared creatures are capable of compassion.
