Dibbey

Here’s some video of Dibbey in an aggressive mood. Note the grunt and the raised tail, which is a dead giveaway that she’s about to attack. She bites Bebe, which looks pretty violent and actually draws a reaction from me, but in slow motion, you can see that it’s an open mouth bite and not meant to injure. It’s just Dibbey asserting her dominance and Bebe is apparently (and thankfully) unhurt.
In fact I saw more of a reaction from Bebe one time when she jumped to take a piece of food at the same time that a much bigger hyena was coming down with a piece. The bigger hyena’s snout hit Bebe’s with an audible thunk and Bebe was visibly hurt. She shook her head and went away to sit by herself sniffing and licking her nose and it was some time before she plucked up the courage to rejoin the fray. She’s only small and usually finds a place to one side of the rest of the hyenas where the hyena man can single her out and give her bits of meat without too much competition.
