SOUNDS
Brown Hyena are very vocal animals, like the Spotted Hyena, but unlike Spotted
Hyena, Brown
Hyena do not have the distinctive laughing call. Brown Hyenas calls are
often heard at dusk. When squabbling with each other over food, Brown
Hyena will growl, snarl, yowl and whine at each other. The sound console below includes a
sound sample of a Brown Hyena. The sound playing console may take a short time
to load, particularly if you have a slow internet connection. You will
need the macromedia flash plugin to listen to the sound file.
