How can you stop spotted hyenas from going extinct?
Spotted hyenas are Conservation Dependent according to the IUCN Red List. This means that they are not endangered, or even threatened. In the short term they are in little danger of becoming extinct, in fact they are probably the least threatened of all the large mammalian carnivores in Africa. However, in the long run, in order to reduce the likelihood of their extinction, a combination of research, setting aside large tracts of land as protected reserves, and working with local communities to improve animal husbandry and tolerate predators are probably the best hopes of any of the large African carnivores.
On a side note, spotted hyenas are not dogs. They are more closely related to cats, but are actually in their own family, Hyaenidae.

In a quick search of the internet, I could find no importer for hyenas, unless you are affiliated with an accredited zoo. One reference stated it is illegal to own one outside of a zoo or sanctuary. You really have to check with the local government regarding ownership, then check to see if your state has any prohibitions against owning them. I would be very wary of anyone who is selling hyenas over the internet. The question as to how they acquired them should be asked, as well as the overall health of the animal.
Which is stronger a striped hyena or a gray wolf?
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.

Hyenas primarily prey on a variety of animals, including wildebeests, zebras, antelopes, and smaller mammals. They are opportunistic feeders and often scavenge from other predators, taking advantage of kills made by lions and other large carnivores. Additionally, they may consume carrion, insects, and even fruits when other food sources are scarce. Their adaptability allows them to thrive in various environments and ecological niches.
