The '''Hyena''' is an [[African]] [[mammal]] with long legs that eats meat. It hunts in packs with other Hyenas,and it is very social because it is laughing all the time. For this reason, it is often called The Laughing Hyena.
Hyenas are predatory scavengers, meaning that they will sometimes feed on [[carillon ]] left from a previous meal, instead of killing their own food. They have spots, and are not common outside of zoos.
[[Hilaire Belloc]] wrote a poem called ''The Hyaena'' (spelled with an "A" because she was [[British]]).
