Although the Serengeti spotted hyaena population more than doubled during the corresponding increase in blue wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus) abundance (Hofer and East, 1995), there has been no study to link hyaena density with that of their prey. Again strong relationships may be derived using th ...
