Because of habitat loss and widespread hunting, Hyena are classified as near-threatened by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, the body that sets the conservation status of species.

Spotted hyenas are locally extinct throughout much of South Africa, as well as West and central Africa. Persecuted by farmers and poachers, their numbers seem to be declining outside of protected areas.

Many spotted hyena populations in eastern, central and western Africa are thought to be patchy and declining. Persecution by humans appears to be the main reason for this decline, partly due to their historical association, through legend and folklore, with witchcraft and the supernatural. They also come into conflict with humans when they prey on domestic livestock and are frequently killed in roads.

Unlike other declining large carnivores their populations are afforded inconsistent protection from shooting, poisoning and snaring, with local classifications ranging from ‘vermin’ to ‘fully protected in conservation areas’.

    Nice speed with slight under stability makes this disc great for the long tern overs and hyzer flips!!

  2. Randall Salazar (verified owner)

    I love my 9 speeds! And this lava hyena instantly whet in my bag. Don’t be surprised by it’s stability. I can release this flat and watch this turn and then have a nice hard fade. Great for shot shaping.

  3. Matthew Bagarus (verified owner)

    I find the Hyena in Lava to be an awesome hyzerflip to flat with reliable fade at the end.
