[PAR] [TLE] Spotted hyena [SEP] The spotted hyena ("Crocuta crocuta"), also known as the laughing hyena, is a species of hyena, currently classed as the sole member of the genus "Crocuta", native to Sub-Saharan Africa.  It is listed as being of least concern by the IUCN on account of its widespread range and large numbers estimated between 27,000 and 47,000 individuals.  The species is, however, experiencing declines outside of protected areas due to habitat loss and poaching.  The species may have originated in Asia, and once ranged throughout Europe for at least one million years until the end of the Late Pleistocene.  The spotted hyena is the largest known member of the Hyaenidae, and is further physically distinguished from other species by its vaguely bear-like build, its rounded ears, its less prominent mane, its spotted pelt, its more dual purposed dentition, its fewer nipples and the presence of a pseudo-penis in the female.  It is the only mammalian species to lack an external vaginal opening. [PAR] [TLE] Ngong Forest [SEP] Ngong Forest is one of the few natural forests located in a capital city.  Located in Nairobi, Kenya, the forest of indigenous trees is managed by the Ngong Road Forest Sanctuaries.  The forest, in Ngong Hills along Ngong Road and 6 km from the central business district of Nairobi, it has been a home of many wild animals, like leopards, Spotted hyenas, and Bush Bucks.  Other residents include Crowned eagles, owls, snakes, and other reptiles and birds.
