I have recently been studying hyenas. They're quite an interesting group of animals. I've looked more closely at the Spotted Hyenas. Anyway, I laughed at this video.
This one is a good strategic kill.
Most people hate hyenas just because they are predators, like many other animals. They need to understand that hyenas need food to feed their young as well. I'm assuming they evolved the characteristic of teamwork in order to increase their fitness as kills are harder to come by alone. What's interesting is that their clans have highly advanced teamwork, and even recognize which clanmate is more reliable than another.
I love them lol.

Hyenas also can eat bones and whatever tissue left in the prey. They have strong acids in the lining of their stomach in order to digest all sorts of tissue. They poop out white powery substance because of the bones they eat. They also regurgitate pellets...
Most people consider hyenas as scavengers, but they are truely hunters. That Lion King movie gave hyenas a bad reputation...fuck Disney.
