[fifticon]

fix the title: "hyena has been spotted for the first time in.." I better keep my day job too.

[opulentegg → fifticon]

Title is correct: Spotted hyena is the species of hyena that was spotted: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spotted_hyena

[fritzo → opulentegg]

Biologists have conjectured the existence of a competing species of unspotted hyenas, but none have ever been ... spotted

[Someone → fritzo]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyena:

“The four extant species are the striped hyena (Hyaena hyaena), the brown hyena (Parahyaena brunnea), the spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta), and the aardwolf (Proteles cristata)”

[fritzo → Someone]

of those four, only Crocuta crocuta has ever been spotted
