3 Figure 2 Three hyena species.
(A) A typically solitary striped hyena. This female has been fitted with a radio collar by researchers. (B) A brown hyena scavenges an egg from an ostrich's nest. Both brown hyenas and striped hyenas are primarily scavengers. (C) Spotted hyena cubs investigate an adult that has just arrived to the clan's communal den. Spotted hyenas are highly gregarious and the communal den is a focal point for social activity and social learning.
