A hyena mauled a woman and sparked mass protests

Police have been ordered to destroy the hyenas to stop the protests. Law enforcers, in turn, said it should be handled by the wildlife service. It is not known how the standoff ended.

In recent years in Kenya, hyenas are increasingly leaving their natural habitat and getting closer to cities in search of food.

Earlier in Thailand, wild monkeys attacked a baby boy and bit his skull. The three-month-old boy was home alone drinking milk when a pack of Javan macaques broke in and climbed into his cot.
