Caracals have really good sense of
hearing and vision. Maybe that’s
why they hunt so good like when
they climb and leap to catch birds
in short flying. You might think that

odorata and it starts small.

By Matthew
Not very many animals eat
the Spotted Hyena but
some do like the Lion and
the African wild dog .The
other thing that kills it is
certain diseases.
The Spotted Hyena is very
unique to me because they
eat a lot of things such as
animals and plants that
means they are called
omnivores!
Mainly a lot of Spotted
Hyenas are found in
packs. Did you know that
the women hyenas lead
the pack and also do
mostly everything first .
One smart thing they do is
scavenge when its
necessary but what
makes me think the
Spotted Hyena is tough is
because they use various
techniques to attack plus
the thing that helps them
fight is with their powerful
jaws!
