Hyena Hygiene

I do not like the Hyena
This animal couldn't look meaner
It looks scary
Ugly and hairy
And dirty, I'd like him cleaner

Hello Shirley … very cunning but also necessary in its environment. Doesn't leave scrap; not even a bone - good limerick indeed - Lindsay

Hello LIndsay...very interesting comments Thank you, I did not know it was such a necessary animal, I feel more accepting toward it now I know it does such a good job .... Shirley

It is a challenge to clean a bloody mess, as every butcher knows! Aloha! Rico

G'Day Rico, It seems from Lindsay's comments that the Hyena meets this challenge very well. find it ironic that it has a call that sounds like laughing...

I don't like Hyena too.. People say looks may deceive, but not for Hyena..

That's true Jenish, what you see is what you get with this animal...
