Ngorongoro Crater Lodge is perched on the edge of the world-famous Ngorongoro Crater at the eastern edge of the Serengeti in northern Tanzania. It lies within the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, which covers more than 8 000 square kilometres (3 100 square miles) of pristine African wilderness.
SMALL PREDATOR CHASES THE BIG ONE.
Just close to "Msalaba mkubwa", we were watching a Golden Jackal, when we saw a sub adult hyena coming on our side. When the hyena was about 2 metres away from the jackal, it started barking while the hyena didn't pay any attention. The jackal continued barking and confronted the hyena. As the hyena didn't seem to mind, the jackal followed it from behind and then bit it on the rear leg. The hyena turned a bit and then continued walking away. The Jackal followed it and bit again. This time the hyena decided to run and the jackal chased it for about 20 metres before it stopped. It was incredible to see a small predator chase a big one.
