Description

The Hyena Scientist is a fascinating introduction to another often-misunderstood species. This myth-busting addition to the Scientists in the Field series sets the record straight about hyenas, featuring groundbreaking research by zoologist Kay Holecamp.

As a scientist studying one of the only mammalian societies led entirely by females, Kay has made it her life's work to understand hyenas - playful, social, and highly intelligent creatures that are far removed from their mangy monster reputation in popular culture.

This informative book is perfect for nonfiction readers looking for more female scientist narratives or a fresh perspective on an underrepresented animal. It offers a timely and inspiring look at the life of a pioneering researcher who has made significant contributions to our understanding of these complex creatures.
