Bouda (Werehyena)

According to legend, werehyenas have long plagued places like Atuga around the Horn of Africa: Ethiopia, Somalia, Sudan. Kids who wander away after dark are at risk. Strangers passing through town are subject to suspicion. That sound that you could swear was a human voice calling your name from a distance? Werehyena.

Unlike their folkloric werewolf cousins, werehyenas can be either human-born or hyenas disguising themselves as humans. Also unlike werewolves, werehyenas are believed to be capable of transforming at will with the help of a magic stick or a sprinkling of ash. Sometimes the smell of human flesh alone could be enough to trigger a transformation...

Also known as "bouda," their scary stories could also be used to marginalize and dehumanize.

Dimanche, environ 250 personnes se sont réunies sur la place Poelart à Bruxelles pour protester contre le non-lieu décidé en faveur des quatre policiers impliqués dans la mort de Mehdi Bouda, un adolescent de 17 ans, percuté par une voiture de police en intervention urgente en août 2019 alors qu’il fuyait un contrôle.     La famille de Mehdi juge inacceptable non seulement l’absence de poursuites…
