Ahhh hyenas are in the feline family....sorry.....
Nope, hyenas aren’t canine (although they resemble dogs), and they most certainly aren’t feline. They belong to their own family.

Well, they’re not canines but they’re not felids either. Of course it doesn’t matter because it turns out they never kill humans anyway.
