Hyenas and lions have a complex relationship that involves both competition and cooperation. While hyenas are known for scavenging, they are also skilled hunters and can take down their prey. However, lions are generally more powerful and often dominate kills, leaving hyenas to scavenge.
The scavenging behavior of hyenas is a result of their opportunistic nature and their ability to detect and locate carcasses. It is also a way for hyenas to minimize the risk of injury or death during hunting. Additionally, hyenas have a strong social structure and work together in groups, which gives them an advantage when it comes to competing with lions for food. Overall, the scavenging behavior of hyenas from lions is a combination of their hunting abilities, opportunism, and social dynamics.
