Hyenas (or hyaenas) are African and Asian dog-like carnivores in the family Hyaenidae, order Carnivora, the order that also includes the dogs, cats, seals, and bears. (encyclopedia.com)
Not only are the wild ungulates and the major Carnivora of the Arabian peninsula all smaller-bodied than conspecifics (or their closest ecological counterparts) in Africa or mainland Asia, but five of the six wild species of ungulates, and both of the top carnivores, are smaller-bodied than the key deer ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_deer ) - an extremely diminutive form restricted to small islands off Florida. (inaturalist.org)
Hyenas are sometimes thought to be members of the dog family, but are very unique creatures having their own family, Hyaenidae. (earthsendangered.com)

The Arabian species is also smaller-bodied than Capra caucasica ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Caucasian_tur ) and the Ethiopian species Capra walie ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walia_ibex ). (inaturalist.org)
Felidae4
Here, we employ a three-antigen Western blot screening (domestic cat, puma, and lion FIV antigens) and PCR analysis to survey worldwide prevalence, distribution, and genomic differentiation of FIV based on 3,055 specimens from 35 Felidae and 3 Hyaenidae species. (nih.gov)
Although FIV infects a wide variety of host species, it is confirmed to be endemic in free-ranging populations of nine Felidae and one Hyaenidae species. (nih.gov)
In this paper we review the collection of fossil carnivores from the late Early Pleistocene site of Cueva Victoria (south-eastern Iberian Peninsula) including the families Ursidae, Hyaenidae and Felidae. (researchgate.net)
Marmoset Diet Canned is formulated to be fed as the sole diet for non-domestic carnivores in the families Felidae, Canidae and Hyaenidae. (petlewa.com)
Hyena2
The four species of hyena-spotted, striped, brown, and the aardwolf-are their own family (Hyaenidae), but if you back up the taxonomic chain a little to the order Carnivora, you'll see that the hyena family and the mongoose family share their most recent common ancestor. (blogspot.com)
