Species: Spotted or Laughing Hyena (Gevlekte of lachende hyena)
Latin name: Crocuta Crocuta
Originates from Africa.
Current status: Least Concern
Did you know:
…The female Spotted Hyena has a pseudo-penis, making it hard to determine by looking at it whether it’s a male or female.
…It is the only mammalian species to lack an external vaginal opening.
…It counts as the most social of the Carnivora, meaning that it has the largest group sizes and most complex social behaviors, with a matriarchal hierarchy.
