EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled "Hyena / Sentry Call 1845," depicts a tense moment in a military camp circa 1845. In the foreground, an aggressive hyena stands on its hind legs, baring its teeth and snarling at a sentryman. The sentryman, with a bugle in hand, looks alarmed and ready to sound the alarm. Tents and other camp structures can be seen in the background, indicating that the soldiers and their animals are encamped. The playful nature of hyenas is often misunderstood, as they are frequently portrayed as vicious and aggressive animals. However, this image serves as a reminder that hyenas can also display aggressive behavior, particularly when they feel threatened or provoked. In this case, the hyena's intimidating display has effectively forced the sentryman to take action. The use of a bugle as a call for help is a common military practice, and the sentryman's quick response demonstrates the importance of vigilance and alertness in a military camp. The presence of hyenas in the camp would have been a common occurrence, as they are scavengers and often follow army units in search of food. This photograph, with its intriguing story and historical significance, offers a fascinating glimpse into the daily life of a military camp in the mid-19th century. The image is a reminder of the challenges and risks that soldiers faced, even in the most mundane of tasks, and the importance of staying alert and prepared in the face of unexpected threats.
