There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.
The hyena, unless it is some species other than spotted hyena, in clearly wrong. I would think that were this a truly scientific study, the species would be given. The measuring of animal bite force is without a doubt not an exact science. How do you command a wild animal to "give it his all"? Those who are "in the know" might perhaps come closer to the truth by analyzing the skulls and muscles of the animals. Paleontologists have thus been measuring the bite force of such animals as Tyrannosaurus rex and many other prehistoric animals for years.
