What are the effects of hunting animals too much?
Depends on the animal that is being over hunted. If it's a predator, then the number of its natural prey will increase. Might even cause numbers of other natural predators of that prey to increase, which could cause numbers of other species that they prey on to decrease, and so on. If it's prey, then the number of its natural predatores will decrease and might become endangered themselves. The over population of prey will compete with other species of animals that feed on the same food. These most probably will disrupt balance between animals that rely on the same rescources to survive.
Explain competition and predation as ways in which organisms interact.?

What is hyena enemies?
Mainly lions. The two species compete for many of the same prey species, and the bigger lion will kill hyenas. Hyenas retaliate by mobbing lions with overwhelming numbers, and driving the cats away. Leopards also compete with hyenas, but this solo hunter usually will drag it's prey up a tree, out of reach of hyenas. A solitary hyena would have no chance against a determined leopard, but hyenas usually travel in groups, and will steal the leopard's prey if it is too large to lift into the trees.
