Hyenas are only scared of male lions

Filmed in the Kruger park by Brent Schnupp, where he managed to watch this amazing interaction between elephants and hyenas and lions and hyenas.

Hyenas will flee when they see one male lion but fight when they see four lionesses reason being they know that male lions will fight to the death for something they believe its theirs, while lionesses will flee to avoid injuries. in this sighting its the hyenas who chose to flee from a kill they had originally stole from the lions but there was relatively little late to interest the lions.
