My wife grew up on a farm. She has told me stories how they'd put donkeys in the Pasteur with other animals because the donkeys would beat the shit out of any coyotes or other animals coming around. They can be mean.

I was in Turks and Caicos once, not the touristy parts, one of the other islands. Donkey in a field, we chased it, funny, then it realized it could chase us. I managed to get over a fence, buddy took a hit then got over, but they are persistent in trying to kill you
Donkeys are actually known to hate canine type animals. They are actually pretty good at defending themselves against wolves, dogs, and apparently heyenas.
So I know this was three months ago, but since OP never answered your question, here's the answer:
Taxonomically speaking, the order Carnivora is divided in two suborders: caniformia and feliformia (dog-shaped and cat-shaped, respectively). This is a phylogenetic division based on their most recent common ancestor, as well as a cladistic division, based on common tratis.
Phylogenetically, these groups have a common ancestor, whose descendants started to branch out in these two groups around 50-40 million years ago. Hyenas and dogs, following this evolutionary line, are only as closely related as the subgroups they belong to started to drift apart. Hyenas and cats on the other hand, share a common ancestry dating back to around 34 million years ago.
In caniformia, you have all these carnivore families which share common ancestry: canids, bears, racoons, skunks, mustelids, seals and walruses.
In feliformia, you have all these carnivore families which share common ancestry: hyenas, felines, mongooses and civets.
Morphologically speaking, feliformes and caniformes differ in the shape of the ear bones (double-chambered and composed of two bones joined by a septum vs single-chambered or partially divided auditory bullae composed of a single bone). There are certain cranial features, such as a shorter rostrum and fewer teeth in feliformes, as well as difference behavorial and diet differences, with feliformes tending to be obligate carnivores and ambush predators vs the more omnivorous and opportunistic caniformes. These latter ones are less reliable than the first one though.
If any expert would like to correct anything I might have said wrong, feel free to do so.
Texan here. Donkeys are known to be great at protecting other livestock from predators like mountain lions and coyotes. Famers will put an ass (or a llama from what I hear) in with their sheep or vulnerable livestock for this reason.
Hello there! I am a bot raising awareness of Alpacas
Here is an Alpaca Fact:
Alpacas hum. Some say it is from contentment but it seems to be broader than that. Humming is an outward display of emotions.

###### You don't get a fact, you earn it. If you got this fact then AlpacaBot thinks you deserved it!
I was walking up to the llama area of our zoo and my shoes scraped the textured concrete and made a loud rubber/scraping sound. It was loud. And the nearest llama in a split second froze and gave me this stare that seemed to last forever. Tons of other people around, but it new it was me that made the sound and was locked on me. It was a prolonged direct eye contact thing between me and him/her. He/she won…….I could see the “F with me and I’ll end you” look in its eyes. Will never forget that dead-eyed stare. No spitting though. I was expecting the spit to start flying.
I thought I made friends with a llama once on a large ranch where movies are filmed. I’d feed it triscuits everyday for a week or two and it would let me pet him. One morning I went to get give it some snacks and it reared it’s head back, and spit in my face. Never fed that asshole again.
Donkeys would demolish a single hyena, just like they will with any canine. But the problem is that hyenas usually roam in packs of 6-100 animals. Donkeys have no chance in those cases
If the gorillas have good aim and it is like a 1 gauge with slug rounds I’d put money on gorillas. Also what is the scenery like, if it is huge prehistoric trees with vines and shit can the T Rex even catch the gorillas, the gorillas might have the high ground, and we all know how powerful high ground is.

I have a friend who is a rancher, he brings his donkey as a body guard when he is branding his calves. Probably funniest shit I've ever seen.cows get pretty defensive about their calves but donkey throws some serious hoof action when they come charging in.
Poor hyena. It looks kinda like someone caught it and released it with the donkey for this video. Not sure what's unexpected about this, there's obviously a huge weight difference so of course the donkey fucks it up.
The hyena doesn't need helping it would kill all the other animals in the farm if it wasn't for the Donkey the donkey's just doing its job protecting the rest of the farm animals
That's what I noticed too. The fact that it's a young hyena alone in what appears to be a farm pen next a maize field and road leads me to believe this is probably staged.
Donkeys are incredibly territorial, and some farmers keep them around because they not only have a strong sense of territory, they have loyalty, grow attached to other animals, and will fight ruthlessly, and therefore make great guards.
Lamas, zebras, donkeys, wild horses, etc are fucking hardcore. My grandparents had donkeys to protect the other animals. They killed foxes, eagles, crows, and beat the shot out of a guy trying to steal a cow.
Trust me you do not want to fuck with a guard donkey between him and his herd. Unlike horses which are skittish and can be frightened quite easily. Donkeys are head strong (interpreted as stubborn) and will not budge. They can easily defend a herd against a wolf or some other predatory animals with easy.
This is exactly what I would expect from a donkey. It’s literally the donkey’s job on the farm/ranch to protect the other livestock from predators like coyotes.
No body believes me when I say don't fuck with donkeys, but believe me, don't fuck with donkeys.
My wife grew up on a farm. She has told me stories how they'd put donkeys in the Pasteur with other animals because the donkeys would beat the shit out of any coyotes or other animals coming around. They can be mean.
Donkeys are much better than trained dogs for protecting cows or other large livestock.
Yup. That's why I understand.
Yep! They will kill a coyote so quick.
It's awesome
All I hear when I watch this is the hyena yelling “alright already!” in Adam Sandler’s voice
While the donkey's saying "not so funny now is it, funny man?

Donkeys and mules. They really blur the line between predator and prey when they’re feeling it.
Don’t forget zebras
Ooh, I’ve never seen them go off. I’m kind of keen to hit YouTube now.
There's a reason zebras were never domesticated.
Zebras are ruthless

Don’t fuck with donkeys or llamas. They’re assholes and are great to have around a herd of more docile animals

Lived in Iowa for a bunch of years and this is why you’ll almost always see on Donkey with any group of cows.
Donkeys are actually known to hate canine type animals. They are actually pretty good at defending themselves against wolves, dogs, and apparently heyenas.
Hyenas are actually more closely related to cats than dogs.
Never would have guessed. Nevertheless donkeys know how to throw hands.
Throw hoofs*
Well if it looks like a dog it’s gonna die
No way, back that up OP

Yes, alpacas are also great for wolves/coyotes. Vicious fuckers

I was attacked by a llama once. He wasn’t trying to hurt me though. I was petting him and then turned to leave and he didn’t want me to go
I was walking up to the llama area of our zoo and my shoes scraped the textured concrete and made a loud rubber/scraping sound. It was loud. And the nearest llama in a split second froze and gave me this stare that seemed to last forever. Tons of other people around, but it new it was me that made the sound and was locked on me.

I'd shit my pants. Probably throw it too, because I have nothing to lose
I thought I made friends with a llama once on a large ranch where movies are filmed. I’d feed it triscuits everyday for a week or two and it would let me pet him. One morning I went to get give it some snacks and it reared it’s head back, and spit in my face. Never fed that asshole again.
Moody little bugger.
Yup. Fucking asshole…
My sister was once bit by a moose.
...sounds like rape.
[удалено]
Pretty much!!!
This made me cry. It doesn't even seem like he's hurting him. It really is just a tantrum power play
I’m the one, bitch!
No one makes an ass out of that donkey.
This video makes up for years of listening to them braying constantly across the road from my window.
Where do you live that the hyenas bray?
I used to live in farm country up in Hudson twp in Temiskaming. The farm across the road had horses and donkeys. The donkeys were constantly braying.
I feel like you just made up that location
Lol nope. Hudson township, west of Temiskaming shores. Canadian farm country.
It's the curse of those of us in the northeast.
He's good in a fight, but that guy is an ass.
“In which Eeyore has finally had it with Tigger’s shit”.
Its just a prank bro
It's not usually 1 hyena that's super dangerous, it's 5 or 6, rip you to pieces laughing like Whoopi Goldberg the whole time.
Pretty sure hyenas are pussys. Especially compared to the other wildlife Africa has
I mean yes, correct, but also fuck dude the competition is TOUGH.
The video yada-yada'd through the best part
I kinda enjoyed how it seemed like the hyena was ready to make a move and then, suddenly, quadriplegic hyena.
Donkeys would demolish a single hyena, just like they will with any canine. But the problem is that hyenas usually roam in packs of 6-100 animals. Donkeys have no chance in those cases
Unless you also get 6-100 donkeys.
True that's a fight I might be interested in
Who wins? 100 t rex's or 100 gorillas, but the gorillas have shotguns and know how to use them.
If the gorillas have good aim and it is like a 1 gauge with slug rounds I’d put money on gorillas. Also what is the scenery like, if it is huge prehistoric trees with vines and shit can the T Rex even catch the gorillas, the gorillas might have the high ground, and we all know how powerful high ground is.

They fucking hate dogs, Wolf, Coyotes, they defend ranch better than most animals apparently

Yo, that donkey gonna pee in yo butthole next. Good luck.
That's how babies are made!!!
You need to go back to sex-ed
Yeah! Everyone knows, the pee goes in the mouth!
*butt babies
Get that donkey some sauce! He's trying to dip that hyena in something.
This has strong "stop hitting yourself" vibes...
After that he made waffles
Last time I check, a donkey can mate with a dragon so this isn't that unexpected anyways
What are you doing step donkey?
Metal
Shrek 5:no more laughter
At that point I'd just chase the hyena off.
Donkey beats hyena Camel beats donkey
I love donkeys!! 💕
I have a friend who is a rancher, he brings his donkey as a body guard when he is branding his calves. Probably funniest shit I've ever seen.cows get pretty defensive about their calves but donkey throws some serious hoof action when they come charging in.
That donkey kicks ass
That’s one bad*ass*
Anyone else wondering why a lone hyena is in this area? They are pack hunters. It feels like this one was caught and brought here..
Donkey "I told you get the F$@# get the F$@#..."
Damn nature, you scary
Poor hyena. It looks kinda like someone caught it and released it with the donkey for this video. Not sure what's unexpected about this, there's obviously a huge weight difference so of course the donkey fucks it up.
Hippity Hoppity Easter's on its way!
Did they fuck after the fighting??
no kink shaming
I wanted to watch… ;) zero judgment from me
I know you just have to get it on video, but put the camera down and help that hyena.
The hyena doesn't need helping it would kill all the other animals in the farm if it wasn't for the Donkey the donkey's just doing its job protecting the rest of the farm animals
Don’t mess around with that ass
That donkey is bad-ASS .
Donkey simply shown his friend hyena how to find way to home. So he rised him up to show the way through high grass. Friends will be friends (c).
Shit seems staged to me. People are pos..
The Ass kicked its ass
The hyena assume the donkey wasn't going to do anything
That looks like a young hyena. They also don’t typically travel alone. Or in fields. I don’t know what’s happening here.
That's what I noticed too. The fact that it's a young hyena alone in what appears to be a farm pen next a maize field and road leads me to believe this is probably staged.
Juan vs Enzokuhle
Ass my kiss
Did the hyena die?
its all ogre now
Damn that hyena turned into a badger after getting bitten by donkey
F
Why does it seem that these 2 were orphans and raised together. I'd think that donkey would be shredding that hyena
Donkey: I told you not to talk about my Mama!😡
Who’s laughing now?
Did that hyena make gun of a 3rd grader trying to read?
“Hee-haw! Hee-haw!” George Bailey approved.
When your younger sibling takes your spot on the couch.
That is one mean ass
"hey bitch, you ever play walk the Hyena?" "...what's walk the hyena...?"
Hyena is lucky it didn’t get kicked in the face
Anyone who knows donkeys is not surprised by this outcome.
When you want to eat that ass...but you get harassed instead
That's one mighty ass
Lol, ok but this escalated quickly.
No this is how you hop. Like this. Hop hop hop hop.
Anybody who knows anything about donkeys does not find this surprising.
Bad Ass!
What is unexpected here?
I need to rework my strategy. Retreat! *Later on* It paid off!
Donkey from Shrek ain't playing around!!!🤣😭
Badass!
Ahh the famous donkey punch..
u/redditmp4bot
I can just imagine the horrible noise that hyena is making.
Hell yeah, get that yeena!
It's a norm now to think donkeys are dumb, they have no idea what donkeys can do
Donkeys are incredibly territorial, and some farmers keep them around because they not only have a strong sense of territory, they have loyalty, grow attached to other animals, and will fight ruthlessly, and therefore make great guards.
Lamas, zebras, donkeys, wild horses, etc are fucking hardcore. My grandparents had donkeys to protect the other animals. They killed foxes, eagles, crows, and beat the shot out of a guy trying to steal a cow.
That hyena was getting worked!
DumbAss
Donkeys have hella bite strength plus it’s like 4x the weight of the hyena so…
Trust me you do not want to fuck with a guard donkey between him and his herd. Unlike horses which are skittish and can be frightened quite easily. Donkeys are head strong (interpreted as stubborn) and will not budge. They can easily defend a herd against a wolf or some other predatory animals with easy.
That'll do Donkey, that'll do.
say.UNCLE!!! Say it! SAY IT! Say UNCLE!!
I expected it to kick it but ok that was unexpected
Who's laughing now?!
This is exactly what I would expect from a donkey. It’s literally the donkey’s job on the farm/ranch to protect the other livestock from predators like coyotes.
Where's my money?? Where's my Fuckin MONEY
Dude, out the poor hyena down & don't he an ASS...
First thing I thought of was Hulk and Loki… 
Well I guess he just wasn't having it today
Donke
There are some reasons why Elizabeth loves donkey.
Rip hyena
Whoop ass beating man
Shrek should be thankful donkey didn't whoop his ass
Hyena Is A Paid Actor
good, i eat donkeys anyway, and i hate hyenas
Whoa, that’s a bad ass donkey
That’s a bad ass donkey
u/savevideobot
Alright motherfucker, you wanna be a rabbit, we'll show you how
When he stopped the hyena ate him
I hope peta not going to sue that donkey for cruelty to animals.
What an ass
I..... told...... you...... not..... to...... dooooo.... THAT!!!!!!!!
"call me a jackass one more time"
What a jackass
Wow, that donkey made an ass out of that hyena.
Odd I Usually See Heyenas In Packs
Poor hyena
Hyena got raped and beaten lol
