The little hyena born in BIOPARC Valencia can now be seen in the Savannah

The small male hyena born this summer begins to explore its outdoor enclosure under the watchful eye of its mother.

Until now the hyena cub has remained in its indoor facilities, out of public view, to promote its well-being and that of its mother. His acclimatization is being very positive, and every day he will be seen more time. However, it is worth remembering that it is the mother who sets the pace of going outside, since they are given access to the interior shelters.

Voting to choose the name of the hyena ends on Friday, September 30.

The name of this calf will be chosen by popular vote on the park website and you can vote until Friday of next week (September 30). The three names that can be chosen were chosen by the group of caregivers, once it was known that it was a male, and they are:

  • Kaos: "Chaos" that which exists before the rest of the gods and elemental forces, that is, the original state of Cosmos. The term comes from ancient Greek Chaos, 'space that opens'.
  • Andriu: corresponds to Andrés, which is a name of Greek origin. Derived from the term ανήρ, genitive ανδρός, which indicates man as opposed to woman; ανήρ may be related to the Indo-European root Ner meaning man, vital force.
  • Imitate: male name of Persian origin that means strength and power. Numerologically it corresponds to 8, which makes it an aspect closely linked to the material and earthly.

Today the votes are in favor of Niru with 55%, followed by Kaos with 38% and Andriu with 7%.
