Hyenas are a famous predator in the wild, they are quick to sniff out death and always keep a close eye on prey that is having health problems and waiting for an opportunity to attack.
Even so, hyenas can also fall prey to other animals. Rock pythons are large in size and will never refuse any animal that can fit in its belly.

A rather intense fight ensued and the mother hyena was powerless to save her cubs from the rock python’s mouth.
The young hyena got lost and was quickly captured by the rock python. The rock python curled up and squeezed the poor hyena.

When the mother hyena found out, it was too late, the mother hyena tried to attack the python to get the young hyena back, but the rock python did not give up easily.
The mother then gave up and the young hyena then settled into the python’s belly.
