Theoretically I suppose this could be possible. However, Hyenas are wild (and dangerous) animals and are best left and appreciated in their wild state. It is always sad to see a wild animal in a cage.

Unless you plan on living in Nigeria, get over the idea of a pet Hyena.

What does a hyena look?

almost like a cheetah B: Hyenas are neither Dogs or Cats. Hyena's have their own family called 'Hyaenidae'. They are well built and their jaws are incredibly strong. A Hyena's back legs are shorter than their front but this does not hinder their ability to run. Their fur colour is almost yellowish brown and, depending what type of Hyena they are, they are covered with spots or stripes.
