Hunting Hyena - How many have hunted one?

Hi,
I am heading over to South Africa in August tagging along on a 14 day Cape Buffalo hunt with my Dad and family. The number one animal I am wanting to hunt while I'm there is a Hyena, Brown or spotted or both. I really wanted to hunt a Brown Hyena on my last trip to South Africa but didn't get a permit in time. This time we are hunting near the Kruger National Park. Just wondering who has hunted in areas close to the Kruger National Park, are there many of either species of Hyena there and do they have their winter coats in August still or are they starting to thin out then? Any Advice would be much appreciated.

Welcome to AH, Richelle, and good luck with your hyena. I´m also trying for one in the Limpopo next September.
