Description
There are many misconceptions about hyena's, one of the most common being that they are mainly scavengers. Hyena's are actually very versatile and skilled hunters. They can bring down prey much larger than they and have been known to bring down buffalo and giraffes.
Hyena's are also incredibly intelligent and in some experiments they even out performed chimpanzees when it came to collective or group problem solving.
