Among hyenas, only the spotted and striped hyenas have been known to become man-eaters. Hyenas readily scavenge from human corpses and hyenas habituated to scavenging on human corpses may develop bold behaviors towards living people.

∙ 13y agoYes they do but only if food is low.But if you do meet a hyena clan then stay calm and if you have a gun then draw it slowly and shoot a bullet in the air.They will come at you and you have to risk everything!!You jump when they are running to you and roll on the ground and then get up quick and start running hyenas are not quick,humans can run faster then hyenas.Run to a Jeep/tent but if you can't find a tent or a jeep then find a tree and climb it and they will be growling at you,use this time to draw your gun and shoot atleast 3-5 hyenas and the rest will get scared and run away and then you can get off the tree and run to safety.
