How do hyenas drink?

[Betterinthebush]

Are they:

1) Water lappers like a dog? Or

2) Water slurpers like a bear?

Also, has anyone ever seen a hyena swim?

Sorry I couldn’t resist.

Interesting question, I’m wondering if they are like dogs.

Questions like that keep me awake at night.

Google thinks they lap like dogs and cats.

You’re feeling sleepy……………

They really prefer to sit around the camp fire and sip a dram of whiskey from the skull of there last victim

Some good videos of them lapping like a dog (or cat) on YouTube as well as some good swimming footage. I had never thought about it before. . . I like the drinking from a skull concept!
Painted dog studios I believe had good Safari footage

Ah! Thank you!

As George Carlin once said, “These are the thoughts I have that kept me out of the really good schools.”

Hyenas use to use plastic straws. They wanted to switch to paper straws, but due to supply chain issues, couldn’t source American made straws and didn’t want straws made in China. There’s a very rare photo from a trail camera showing the last known hyena drinking with a straw. The photo is entitled, “The Final Straw!”

I was going to say "With an open tab"...

Did Hyenas quit drinking from straws because they found out that in California drinking from straws can cause cancer?
Or did they quit in protest because the new paper straws are delivered wrapped individually in plastic?

I read this in the voice of comedian Steven Wright. It was perfect.

Hyenas drink from where the honey badgers LET them drink.
