Yeen Fact #984: Heart of a Hyena
Yeen Fact #984: "A spotted hyena's heart makes up nearly 1% of its body weight, which is almost double the relative size of a lions! (around 0.56%). While lions will rely on short bursts of speed to ambush prey, hyena's can use their incredible endurance to run down antelope, zebra and wildebeest for several kilometers without tiring! These marathon runners are among Africa's most successful large predators." This has been another fun Hyena Fact.
