Powerful spotted Hyena prowling on all fours. This is a single piece woodcarving by Eleazar etched out of block sized pieces of copal wood. Their hypnotic stare sends shivers down the spine. Infamous for their ferocious ways of hunting in large groups called clans. Interesting to note the hyena is the largest member of the weasel family.

What we love about this piece: In 20 years we've only had one other artist do a hyena. This one is the largest and sculpturally the most realistic. Every muscle mimics a prowling movement and is impressive at every perspective.
