Hyaenas

Snares catch other species like lions and hyaenas indiscriminately. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Although their survey doesn't give any indication of what the population levels of the hyaenas may be, it does show that the hyaenas are, unfortunately, still being persecuted; national newspapers reported 23 incidents of hyaenas having been killed during 1999-2001. ❋ AYDIN (2008)

During another episode of Uncut, King looked in detail at Spotted hyaenas Crocuta crocuta, and in particular at the interactions that hyaenas have with lions. ❋ Darren Naish (2006)

Cats are hard to kill, and I guess hyaenas are too. ❋ Darren Naish (2006)

But things went badly wrong for the hyaenas when two male lions showed up. ❋ Darren Naish (2006)

Another contributing factor they cite is the presence of widespread garbage dumps throughout the countryside, which apparently provide food for the omnivorous hyaenas. ❋ AYDIN (2008)

British homotheres are also known from the early Pleistocene site of Dove Holes near Buxton, Derbyshire, a site that also yielded giant hyaenas, straight-tusked elephants and southern mammoths (Dawkins 1903), but is today occupied by a municipal rubbish dump (Yalden 1999). ❋ Darren Naish (2006)

Abi-Said & Abi-Said (2007) report that striped hyaenas (Hyaena hyaena syriaca) remain widely distributed in Lebanon. ❋ AYDIN (2008)

Curiously, among the 2 nature reserves included in the survey, one had the lowest relative abundance of hyaenas, while the other had no signs of them. ❋ AYDIN (2008)

This goes for predation behaviour in lions, hunting dogs, spotted hyaenas, wolves and killer whales. ❋ Darren Naish (2006)

High hunting costs make African wild dogs vulnerable to kleptoparasitism by hyaenas. ❋ Darren Naish (2006)

1. - You should do something about that Marco guy, he's straight up [hyaenaing] your girlfriend. 2. - He isn't your friend. He's waiting for your boyfriend to irritate you so he can say "Ya know I wouldn't treat you like that. [You deserve better]." He's a hyaena. 3. - [Jennifer's] my new girl cause I straight up hyaenaed Dave. ❋ VitoVane (2017)
