Researchers have observed striped
hyenas and gray wolves hunting
together in certain areas
One hypothesis suggests that changing
hunting behavior aids both species in
obtaining better
and more resources. In this hypothesis
the hyenas benefit because the wolves
chase and take
down large animals, such as goats, that
the hyenas usually cannot catch alone
The wolves
benefit from hyenas using their jaw
strength to crack open large bones of
prey to access
additional nutrients from bone marrow.
Which table best identifies the
ecological relationships among the gray
wolf, hyena, and
goats?
