Hyenas

In the animal world, there are many unique animals, but Hyena is a conspicuous real animal. That huge chin can crush the bone of its prey, which usually eats the whole body of its prey. The scientific name of their hyena is Crocuta Crocuta. Most of their hyena live in sub-Saharan Africa except Congo Basin. Many hyenas live in Ethiopia, the UK, Somaliland, and Ngrongoro Crater. Their habitat is usually a flat meadow. It is primarily dry and sometimes rocky.

Spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) has the strongest squat in the animal kingdom. Among the three types of hyena in Africa, only spotted hyena, shy and unusual striped hyena (Hyaena hyaena) were found in East Africa. Even smaller, brown hyena (Hyaena brunnea) occurs only in southern Africa. Hyena is a large animal with a strong structure, a fuzzy bear shape with high shoulders and long muscles. Hyena has big head, wide round ears. The coat is coarse, relatively short, brownish red, yellowish brown and thin with age. The tail and nose are black. It is awkward to walk a dog and is witty. They are generally considered scavengers (they choose to kill with big carnivores and frequent garbage dumpers), but they also kill and kill all kinds of prey.

Four existing hyena species occupy three different foraging habitats. Tarantula is a strict food animal, striped and brown hyena mainly eat carrion, spotted hyenas are effective predators, mainly eat middle and large antelope and commit suicide. Although all four species may spend considerable time each day compared to the same plant, they are strictly separate foraging besides spotted hyenas, and individually or in large groups It may be killed. Spotted hyena is still widely regarded as a scavenger that can capture other leftover carnivores (cheetah, leopard, lion, etc.) or leftovers from unleavened food. But this is incorrect. Spotted hyenas have been eliminated from chance, but they are effective hunters and kill 60-95% of the food you eat directly (Figure 1). Spotted hyeners are impressive in their choice of prey and use many different hunting techniques.

The speckled hyena folkloreal and mythical depiction depends on the national origin of the story. It is often found in the West Africa whether spotted hyena is a unique hyena species in this kind of story, as spotted hyena and striped hyena are often given the same name It is often difficult. In the story of West Africa, spotted hyena is said to occasionally challenge local Cengdi Beng Muslims. In East Africa, the myth of Tabowa depicts hyena spotted as the first sun animal to cool the sun warmly, while West African folklore depicts immorality, dirty habits, normal activity reversal and other negative I describe Hyena as a symbol of features. . . In Tanzania, people believe that witches use spotted hyenas as horses. In Mtwara region of Tanzania, it is thought that a child born on a night of crying hyena may grow and become a thief.
