Dvůr Králové Safari Park announces birth of rare aardwolf cubs
The Dvůr Králové Safari Park is the first zoo in Czechia to have successfully bred the rare aardwolf or earthwolf - a breed of small hyena. The three cubs were born on Sunday and are reportedly doing well. Only three zoos in the world have managed to breed this particular hyena, which is only about half a metre tall. A litter of three aardwolf cubs is a triumph in itself and it has been hailed as one of the most important breeding successes in the zoo’s close to eighty year history.
