The spotted hyena has a lot of adaptations they laugh when they are being chased or attacked. The spotted hyena has very powerful jaws that can crunch large bones. They also have long tounges to lick ants of bark of trees.

Their size, relatively bad tempers, huge crushing jaws, loud, intimidating cackle, and their bold attitude. A clan of hyenas won't hesitate to take on one or two or three lions (depending on the size of the clan) and drive them off of a kill.
