[00:00:00]Hyenas have a higher hunting success rate than lions. Not slightly higher, double. And lions are the ones stealing kills, [music] not the other way around.

[00:00:07]Everything you think you know about hyenas is backwards. They look like dogs, but their DNA is closer to cats.

[00:00:13]They cooperate on hunts with communication strategies that rival chimpanzees. They hold long-term grudges. They've been observed deliberately deceiving members of their own group. Their bite force is strong enough to crush bone, and their stomach acid dissolves everything. Hide, bone, all of it. Nothing goes to [music] waste. They're the most efficient cleanup system in nature. One species actively preventing disease outbreaks across [music] entire ecosystems. And that laugh, it has nothing to do with happiness. Hyenas laugh when they're scared. Better hunter than a lion, smarter than most predators, and the most misunderstood [music] animal alive.
