A male hyrax is simply called a "male hyrax," as there is no specific term unique to male individuals of the species. The term "hyrax" refers to the entire group of small, herbivorous mammals in the order Hyracoidea, which includes both males and females. Hyraxes are known for their close evolutionary relationship to elephants and manatees.
