The North Clan of hyena has become a firm favourite for the safariLIVE crew during our time in the Mara. Their matriarch, Waffles, has ruled over the clan for quite some time and her granddaughter, Soup, is set to take the throne. Yet the Waffles bloodline faces a threat to their dominance, a lower ranking female named Sauer has set her sights on becoming leader of the clan. Will Waffles and Soup maintain their claim, or will Sauer overthrow the hierarchy and become the new queen? Don't miss safariLIVE: The Gauntlet, Fridays 11 pm EDT on Nat Geo WILD. You can also catch safariLIVE: The Gauntlet and safariLIVE: Overtime on the safariLIVE YouTube channel as well as natgeo.com/Safarilive.
