No, hyenas hunt their own prey just like how wolves do. They are not scavengers or wimps. What people seem to ignore is- why would an animal have such strong jaws and be a scavenger? In fact, lions steal hyenas' kills alot more than hyenas do.
No, they hunt 80-95% of their prey depending on where they live.

A gray wolf is stronger because it out weighs the hyena and is mored skilled than a striped hyena, not to say that a striped hyena is just a weak scavenger like most people say. Think about it like this, if a striped hyena is attacked by a large dog it will feign death, if a wolf is attacked by a dog, it will kill it, even the most powerful dogs. A more equal fight would be a gray wolf vs spotted hyena.
