laughing hyenas
Giggling African carnivores
Laughing hyenas are spotted hyenas, named for their distinctive vocalization—a series of high-pitched sounds resembling human laughter.
The "laugh" typically signals excitement or social submission rather than amusement.
We could hear laughing hyenas in the distance as night fell over the savanna.
