  • Summary

  • Hyenas are often misunderstood as mere scavengers, despite being responsible for hunting about 95% of their prey. However, like other predators, they sometimes scavenge for sustenance. One of the primary ways they've developed for scavenging is by observing fellow scavengers such as vultures. By watching vultures circling and descending, hyenas can locate potential kills by following them. Their incredible sense of hearing and smell also plays a crucial role, enabling them to pick up on distress calls, the sounds of a kill, or the scent of blood from a distance.
