Description
Like this observation (http://www.inaturalist.org/observations/17238), it's a challenge for me to distinguish tree hyrax (Dendohyrax) from a bush hyrax (Heterohyrax). I'm sticking with bush hyrax because of the visible patch above the eye, and the somewhat distinguishable neck (tree hyraxes are more heavily built).
On boulders before park gate.
