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.
