  1. hyena dog

    A hyena dog, also known as the African wild dog, Cape hunting dog, or painted wolf, is a wild canine species native to Sub-Saharan Africa. It belongs to the Lycaon pictus species, which means "painted wolf" in Greek due to its unique fur pattern containing patches of red, black, brown, white, and yellow fur. These wild dogs are known for their pack behavior and high hunting success rates. Lack of a specific hierarchy in feeding and dominance is a unique behavior seen in these dogs. They are distinct from hyenas, despite the common name.
