LONG-DISTANCE KILLER

Can run at 35 mph for 3 miles.

Spotted hyenas are Africa’s dominant predator, responsible for a quarter of all game animals killed. Lions are their only rivals, and the two species exist in a constant state of war. Both steal food from each other, but contrary to popular belief, lions scavenge more often from hyenas. In many areas, hyena kills are a lion’s main source of food. Hyenas eat fast, and they eat a lot—a third of their own body weight, or the size of a large lamb, in just half an hour. They devour everything: the concentrated hydrochloric acid in their guts digests even the skin and bones, leaving their scat white with calcium.
