Hyenas hunt and scavenge across the African savanna in tight clans. A matriarch leads the way, and the famous cackle carries for miles, summoning clan-mates to carrion or warning rivals off the den. This puzzle explores the biology behind one of the savanna's most misunderstood, and mostly nocturnal, predators.
