Talk:Cave hyena

Cave mammals

I've noticed that many Pleistocene carnivorans have names with "cave" stuck in front of them. Cave Hyena, Cave Bear, Cave Lion and probably others. Why is this and could it be mentioned in the articles for these animals? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.36.130.109 (talk) 03:28, 10 February 2012 (UTC)

As a different species

According to a recent study, the cave hyaena would be a different species (C. spelaea).--Rextron (talk) 06:47, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
