The presence of a spotted hyena and the savanna-like grassland environment are strong indicators of sub-Saharan Africa. While the Gtel phone brand points to Zimbabwe, hyenas are widespread across many East and Southern African countries with similar habitats. Tanzania, particularly the Serengeti National Park, is famous for its vast grasslands and large populations of spotted hyenas. This candidate represents a strong alternative within the broader hyena range, assuming the phone brand might be less indicative of the exact country of origin or a regional distribution.

Similar to Tanzania, Botswana is another sub-Saharan African country known for its extensive grasslands and significant populations of spotted hyenas, particularly in areas like the Okavango Delta or Chobe National Park. The visual evidence of the hyena and the grassy environment perfectly align with Botswana's ecosystems. This candidate offers another strong possibility within the hyena's natural range, acknowledging that the Gtel phone brand, while pointing to Zimbabwe, doesn't entirely rule out neighboring countries where such phones might be in use or where the photo could have been taken by someone visiting from Zimbabwe.
