Mother and Hyena Cub | Adorable Interaction at their Den in the Wilderness of the Greater Kruger 

I love when I see lion kills hyenas! That's so cute and adorable!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

I agree. Their intelligence rivals wolves. They have different vocalizations for each individual, interactions, and scenarios. That's why they're so vocal. They're like Orcas & Bottle nose dolphins in that sense.

@@milosristic2490 ????

@@milosristic2490 You have issues.

Their friendship even outperforms Chimpanzees!

Glad you enjoyed it, Hyenas are one of my favourites!😊 thank you for watching

Do you have a cat or dog? They'd eat them alive if they could

@@RCfire55 don’t be ridiculous xD of course Hyenas are wild animals, that doesn’t change they’re awesome

One thing they have above lions is that they sont eat their kids, yeah lion males eat all the existing cups when taking over a pride

Cute wittle hyena puppies 🥺❤

Cubs*

@@A_Random_Shroob Baby hyenas are called pups-

@@dawnl5235 They are cubs. Look it up and then speak for yourself.

они не кошки🤦🏼🤦🏼гиены относятся к псовым

​@@user-ey2mu8ui8cactually they're not in the canine Gene. They are related to cats

Hyenas are are related to cats ask a zookeeper or any sort of animal expert out there they'll tell you​@@user-ey2mu8ui8c

@@user-ey2mu8ui8cwell who told you that or you made it up?

😁🙏🏻

Completely agree! And, combined with vultures they are THE most important link in the ecosystem as the clean up crew! If they weren’t there, could you imagine all the viruses that could’ve spread into human habitation surrounding these conservation areas. Thanks for seeing the light😂👍

@@cs-wildcam So true, I'm sick of vultures and hyenas being demonized and always made the bad guys in media just because of their scavenger instincts. If it weren't for scavengers, there'd be dead bodies littering the planet and creating all sorts of deadly diseases.

But I like them because of Disney :) We bought a plush Shenzi the hyena and it's our favourite toy animal... thus we also like hyenas in general :)

Ok, why is it on every Hyena video, people think they're hated because of Lion King? It's a damn cartoon, like there haven't been many cartoons that have portrayed animals as bad guys. I haven't really seen anyone despising them because of that.

@@Disneyfan82 What's funny is that hyenas hunt for their food most of the time. It's lions who scavenge the most because they're too damn lazy. Male ones to be specific.

Did you know they are related to cats not dogs. There are 4 tyoes of hyenas this is a spotted, the largest, the ones in lion king. The others are brown,striped amd aardwolf. They are related to vats but more closely realated to moongese amd meercats. Also Female hyenas are bigger amd have a psuedo penis that looks like males genitals that they give birth from. They have more testosterone amd hyenas are matriarchal. A newborn female cub out ranks the oldest male! The more you know. Also they have a bite force of 1,100 almost twice a lions 650 psi and can eat amd crush even a giraffe thigh bone

@@karsonmars8202 That's most interesting, thanks for sharing. No all I knew about them was the whole matriarchy system of theirs, and of course the glorious pseudopenis which I sometimes consider more efficient than the usual female genitalia... having it be an outer tube like that means less danger for the male organ if bodies twist at an awkward angle. But I've never really seen it in action so maybe the pseud is too stiff to bend around like I'm imagining. That stuff about them being closer to cats than dogs though... very cool, and I kind of sensed it. The mongoose relation at least.

Sorry for you loss.

Me too!!😊

Weasels and dogs are both caniforms. Hyenas are feliforms. Hyenas are closely related to mongooses and civets, not weasels

I dont think so, weasal are on the canifrom (closer to dogs than cats) side of the carnivores, but hyena are feliform (closer to cats)

They are related to mongooses

Don’t mention that they gave hyenas a bad credit

Hyena Cub: Wake up mom

Lionesses are extremely protective of their cubs and will often work together when a male lion starts presenting as a threat usually to usually a male cub. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BHQ9qAX2hrA.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qG12DqwABsg.html

@@Vetrarland OK well that makes sense but however there’s one thing you completely forgot and I saw the videos those males could be just the fathers of the Cubs. When it comes to the pride of lions whenever the male lion plays too rough around the cubs acts out aggressive towards them the lionesses always act in defensive mode trying to keep the male from slaughtering it’s on offspring by mistake. Whenever Cubs are born the Lionesses normally don’t introduce the Cubs to male lion that fathered them until they are a little grown because being an oversized aggressive male can lead to the death by accident. But when another male lion takes over the pride it kills all the offspringIn order to put the lionesses in heat for mating. I’m not trying to be a smart ass I’m just saying that’s the truth. What you just saw was a fathers playing too rough or acting aggressive probably as a way of discipline because they’re in trouble with their Cubs. Just like you seen those videos were a dad goes into the room to ground his son or daughter by taking away whatever game system or television they have and breaking them going a little overboard with there are way of discipline.

No doubt!👌🏻

They ain't angels, no predators are angels.

@@bobaa4268 who qualifies as angels then? Solely herbivores?

@@EmeraldCurlySamurai Actually not any animal for that matter, elephants (specifically Africans) are highly aggressive. Same as most rhinos. And we don't talk about hippos.

@@bobaa4268 when did a debate begin about whether or not the animals are aggressive? I feel the goal post shifting

If its the cub of a high-ranking clan member, then it won't matter what gender it is, as the cub itself will also be a high ranking member.

@@hyenaboy7504 true, but thats like the minority

@@hyenaboy7504 it actually does matter. If its male it will automatically be booted down below all the females

@@ChibiCherub Wrong. That only applies to immigrant males. A male born into the clan will take the rank directly below that of his mother's. In fact, it is possible for a clan to be lead by a male rather than a female. 'Spotted hyenas live in hierarchical social groups that consist of up to 130 members, including up to 50 adult females, 40 adult males and 40 offspring. In these ‘clans’ there is a strict, linear dominance hierarchy in which all females and their young dominate all immigrant males. Daughters and sons inherit the social ranks right below that of their mother. Thus, spotted hyenas live in matrilineal societies led by an ‘alpha-female’ followed by her young and all other females with their young. Below the lowest-ranking native clan member comes the highest-ranking immigrant male, followed by all other immigrant males. In exceptional cases, a male may lead a clan.' (Source: Hyena Project).

Agree😂👍

Not necessary. If the male spotted hyena for some reason is not expelled from his clan, then he will receive the rank of his mother. There were cases when such males became the leaders of the pack. The only thing is that such males will not have cubs, since hyenas almost never have cases of inbreeding.

Kinda, but not as much as some people think. Spotted hyenas Actually Hunt most of their own food and are so skilled at it that lions will steal more often from then the other way around. Brown and striped hyenas do scavenge a lot more though.

@@megadracosaurus do you know they are my favorite animals!

@@donnadonna124 Lions or hyenas? I do like both a lot, though I admit hyenas are my favorite personally. They're just really interesting animals that are widely misunderstood, that (despite what one might think on first sight) are very unique in the carnivoran family. Jane Gooddall, yes that one, even considered them to have more in common with apes then other carnivores in a number of ways. While she is of course known for her research with chimps, she also studied spotted hyenas a lot, even wrote a book called "Innoscent Killers" about them, that also talks about jackals and painted dogs.

@@megadracosaurus wow

Shut up lions steal hyenas stuff give hyenas a chance for once for crine out loud

Nobody cares about your sick complex hatred of such amazing animals

Than why did you watch that video..?

Theb why did you click on the video?
