Will hyenas will hunt live prey?
Depends upon the type of hyena:The largest, the spotted hyena, also known as the laughing hyena, hunts and kills up to 95% of its food. The remainder is scavenged, but it is first and foremost a hunting predator. It hunts in packs at night, which enables it to bring down prey much larger than itself. Preferred prey are wildebeest, zebra, and gazelle. It has been known on occasion to bring down prey as large as a giraffe, elephant, and cape buffalo. In fact, its only competition for apex predator in those areas where it hunts is the lion, and if hunting success rate is the sole or most important criterion for apex predator is % of successful hunts, the spotted hyena wins with a 50% and greater success rate, while the lion succeeds only on 30% of its hunnts.The two next largest, the striped hyena and brown hyena are both scavengers that hunt on occasionally.Last and smallest is the aardwolf, a highly specialized predator. Its diet consists almost entirely of harvester termiites.
