Why Do These Men Feed Wild Hyenas by Hand? | Carter's WAR

Africa remains home to the most formidable apex predators on Earth, but the space between wild animals and human civilization is shrinking. This documentary explores the front lines of conservation where unconventional heroes use innovation to prevent extinction. The journey moves to the ancient walled city of Harar in Ethiopia. Here, a family of hyena men has spent generations forming a bond with a predator often feared and hunted. By feeding these wild animals by hand, they have replaced ancient conflict with a strange and beautiful harmony. From the delicate rehabilitation and release of orphaned black rhinos to a complex medical ultrasound on a wild 6,000lb African elephant, the work is dangerous and messy. These stories highlight the tireless efforts required to ensure that Africa’s most dangerous and majestic creatures have a future in a rapidly changing world.
