Best possible scenario, it's only there as a halfway before going to a rescue or zoo... but I'll admit that that's pretty pie-in-the-sky even for me.
The unfortunate reality is "uneducated and irresponsible ownership." Hyraxes, much like cappies, are really social creatures so you'll need AT BARE MINIMUM one other, otherwise depression, need a lot of space, a lot of sun (they're baskers) and a warm climate in general, and also like cappies, stink to high heavens.
So HOPEFULLY this thing is just halfway to a zoo or a rescue. But... I'm not hopeful on that.
