Spotted hyena

Ali Pashang

The spotted hyena is the largest member of the hyena family. It has a large, powerful head, slender legs and a sloping back. Their forequarters are more heavily built than their hindquarters. The fur is coarse, woolly, and a yellowish-gray to brown colour. The head and feet are a lighter brown than the rest of the body and irregular dark spots are scattered over the whole body. Its tail is short and bushy, and a short mane covers its neck and shoulders. On average, females are 12 cm longer and 6 ½ kg heavier.

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 – which include mongooses, and meerkats.

Head & Body Length: 95 - 166 cm
Tail Length: 25.5 - 36 cm
Shoulder Height: 70 - 92 cm
Weight: 40 - 86 kg
