Prof. THEUNISSEN: Correct, yeah. So this is a colony of spotted hyenas and the spotted hyena is the laughing hyena. It's actually the only hyena among the three living hyenas that produces the giggle sound or the laugh.
The hyena (spelled âhyaenaâ in some parts of the world) is Africaâs most common large carnivore. There are three hyena speciesâspotted, brown, and striped. Spotted hyenas are the largest of the three. Hyenas are fairly large in build and have relatively short torsos with lower hindquarters and sloping backs.
