  While the op is correct, I suggest that this ancient thread be marked done.

  Because the desert predators we encounter there are definitely not looking like hyenas. Desert wolf would also be acceptable.

  These "hyena" look more like Malinois dogs.

  i haven't encountered one ingame yet but going off the icon in the skinning bench it would appear to be a maned wolf, a south american canid is quite far off from an african feliform

  I think you guys are forgetting this is a terra formed planet, they don't necessarily have to make them accurate to real life, I know that most if not all the animals are pretty accurate, but just saying that they will probably put this on the back back burner.

  You are 100% correct. They look nothing like a 'real life' hyena. I'm gonna say these are 'space hyenas' for now until we improve it in the future :-)
  
  thanks for the feedback, we really appreciate it.

  I have to admit, just changing the name would be good because it's a real animal on earth and not an invented one like on Prometheus.
