Radi Al-Awd: Hyena Whisperer

From Liveleak:

When a wild hyena rampages in the mountains of Jordan and eats sheep, dogs, and a baby they call in this man to catch it. He wrestles it out of its den, and never shoots. He tracks the footprints and traces of fur until he finds the den, and crawls into it with a torch. The helpers block the entrance with rocks so that the hyena cannot get out! They only open it when he shouts that he is coming out with the creature.

He shows remarkable compassion for the creature and brings it out muzzled so that it does not bite him. He gives it water to drink and comments that if the creature is so thirsty imagine just how hungry it must be, as if apologizing for the animal's rampage. Then he takes it home to captivity away from harm.

The baby of 1 1/2 years age was eaten three months ago and his remains found by police. The hunter's name is Radi Al-Awd and he does this regularly!
