From what I hear, they fight with lions all the time in the wild. I guess they have to be pretty tough for that.

They harrass the lionesses over the kills they make. Hyenas are more scavenger than hunter. Its easier to take someone else's food than get your own.

However, the male lion won't take any crap from a hyena. On average, an adult male lion is 3-4 times the size of a hyena and is not afraid to kill it. They are viscous mortal enemies.

Maybe but don,t get them mad. They might chew your arm off.

Hyenas are a family of their own, the Hyaenidae. They're more closely related to cats than dogs, but their closest relatives are the Herpestidae -- mongooses, meerkats and such.

Any way a hyena would kick a dogs ass any day of the week.
