A spotted hyena settles into an abandoned aardvark burrow for a cool midday nap in Ngorongoro Crater.

In Ngorongoro Crater, a spotted hyena utilized an abandoned aardvark burrow to take a cool midday nap. This behavior highlights a common occurrence in the wild, where holes created by aardvarks frequently serve as ready-made shelters for various other animals. These natural structures provide essential refuge from extreme heat, allowing wildlife to regulate their temperature. The observation was captured by Mary Ann Anderson of TNS, illustrating the opportunistic use of existing habitats by local fauna.
