To say that the most ferocious animals on the planet, hyenas can definitely be among the best, unlike most animals, when hunting, they usually kill their prey first, and then enjoy their lunch with peace of mind. But hyenas are different, they are natural opportunists, are "bag-in-bag" characteristics, no matter what to eat first and then say. This is bitter for those animals that are preyed on by hyenas, it is not humane at all, and many animals are watching themselves being eaten little by little, which is really cruel.
But such ferocious wild animals can only bow down to humans. Humans have a long history of domestication, in ancient times humans also rely on predators for a living, but there is no guarantee that every hunt will be successful, while human beings live in groups, the resources allocated to each person's hands must be limited, so they will also pick up some wild fruits for a living. But as humans evolved their brains and learned to make and use tools, the efficiency of hunting increased, and many foods accumulated and could not be eaten.
Finally, some animals were raised in order to eat later, and they began to reproduce, and over time they became more and more close to humans, and eventually they were domesticated, from wild animals to domestic animals. Humans also use many animals to meet their daily needs, such as helping themselves with farm work or acting as a means of transportation.
But humans domesticated wild animals or kept some animals as pets, many of which are docile grass-fed and do not actively harm humans. But it's absolutely bizarre to say that hyenas are tamed as pets, but it does happen, and in Nigeria, a country in Africa, hyenas have become a very unique kind of pet, and sometimes ride them shopping, which is also a status symbol, of course, many people also use hyenas for street performances.

01 Hyenas are not dogs
Judging from the name or appearance of hyenas, this animal should belong to the canine family, or at least be related to dogs, but in fact they are still very distant in terms of kinship. From the biological classification point of view, hyenas have their own separate family - hyena family, under this family contains four genera a total of four species, namely "spotted hyena, striped hyena, brown hyena and coyote wolf", of which the first three are predators are more ferocious, and coyotes are specialized animals, they mainly feed on termites, are very timid by nature, and they will not be able to pull out the anus and other damage at all.
Hyenas, as we generally know them, are spotted hyenas, and they are also known as the "second brother of Africa", and they are considered to be only inferior to lions in the African savannah. Felines are still relatively strong, and they can almost occupy an important place in the food chain in their respective fields. Of course, in the African savannah, hyenas often have the upper hand in the face of lions, and the probability of success in snatching lion prey is also very high.
Spotted hyenas live primarily in groups, headed by the female spotted hyena queen, who raises their cubs together. Although group members hunt together, hyena groups have a strict hierarchy, and male hyenas are the lowest in the group, ranking last even if they eat. This also caused some of the lowest-status hyenas to have their teeth worn out, mainly because they could not eat normal meat, mainly to gnaw on bones.
02 Hobby group beating, stunt extraction
The reason why the spotted hyena can become the second brother of Africa, and their two skills are inseparable, the spotted hyena mainly adopts a group lifestyle, generally a population of several to dozens of members, they wander in groups in the African savannah, generally they can hunt by themselves, in fact, the project success rate is not low, but there are more group members, just hunting the amount of food is naturally not enough, so they have started to rob the house.
In the African savannah, lion prey, leopard prey is often robbed by spotted hyenas, lions if the number of members is large, or successfully protect their prey, but leopards are difficult, so leopards will quickly take the prey to the tree after hunting, as far as possible to guard against hyena robbery.
Spotted hyena attacks on prey especially like to bite the anus of prey, so in some documentaries you can see a very funny but also terrifying scene, spotted hyena attack on the soft parts of the prey is actually a superb technology, because as far as possible to make the prey lose combat effectiveness or power, spotted hyena attack the prey is really while biting while eating meat, this time there will be a terrible scene, the prey has not completely died.
03 was domesticated by humans as a pet, and the little expert of digging anus was willing to bow to the wind
Adult spotted hyenas are more than 1 meter long, the average weight is between 40-55 kilograms, due to the difference in food resources in the distribution environment, the size of the spotted hyena is naturally different, and the largest one is more than 70 kilograms. Their attack ability is very strong, and their bite force can be ranked in the top few among land animals, at least for humans, they can be invincible.
But humans can turn spotted hyenas into pets, in the northern region of The African country of Nigeria, Kano State, where people like to raise spotted hyenas as pets, and sometimes take them shopping, which will cause a lot of people to watch. Some people have a fierce dog is actually more intimidating, and raising a spotted hyena to become a pet is really exaggerated, so why doesn't it attack humans back?
In fact, this is all a process, requires special training, and even then it is not completely safe, so many spotted hyenas that are raised as pets will put a condom on their mouths to avoid hurting people after they break free. The horror of the spotted hyena is also in their sharp and terrifying teeth, and since they can't open their mouths, they have become a little pity for others to fiddle with!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > said at the end</h1>
Spotted hyenas can become human pets, the process is very difficult, of course, this wild and difficult to tame animals are also very dangerous for humans, more unarmed humans under them can not survive a round in front of them. But through long training, these predators can be brought to the knees of human obscenity with food.
Of course, if you want to make them completely human cute, it takes a lot of effort, just like the tigers and leopards in the zoo, etc., the keepers have been fully familiar with it for a long time, and they generally do not attack.
