on the contrary, they are skilled hunters and very well organized.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->Surprisingly intelligent, they are capable of implementing astounding strategic behaviors.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->In fact, during hunting activities, they cooperate with each other to bring down larger prey, using techniques that require planning and collaboration.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->This social aspect is often overlooked in narratives that portray them as solitary and ruthless.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->They are nocturnal animals: they prefer to hunt in the dark to reduce the risk of encounters with other predators but also to escape the sweltering, torrid daytime temperatures.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><br \/>\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":4} --><\/p>\n<h4 id=\"La-risata-della-iena\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">The laugh of the hyena<\/h4>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->When hyenas are excited or stressed, they make a sound similar to laughter.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->This sound is used to communicate within the group.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->It is a signal to warn other clan members of the presence of danger or possible prey and certainly not a manifestation of malice.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->Unfortunately, however, this cultural stigma has contributed to the false idea that hyenas are mean and creepy animals<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->Instead, as with many other animals, it is essential to take into account their biological role and actual behavior, instead of relying on myths and legends.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><br \/>\n<!-- wp:heading {\"level\":4} --><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enough fear and prejudice: hyenas deserve a reassessment of their image<\/h4>\n<p><!-- \/wp:heading --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->The reputation of these animals affects not only public perception, but also their conservation.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->Often, fear and prejudice can lead to conflicts with humans, especially in agricultural communities where hyenas can be seen as a threat to livestock.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->Promoting a more nuanced understanding based on objective facts rather than the hearsay they are victims of can help improve their prospects for preservation.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->Let us stop seeing them as the &#8220;bad guys&#8221;
