Why are hyenas' body used for medicine?

Hyenas' bodies are used in traditional medicine in some cultures due to beliefs in their medicinal properties, including the notion that their body parts can treat various ailments or bring good luck. Specific parts, such as bones or skin, may be used in rituals or as talismans. However, these practices often lack scientific backing and can contribute to the decline of hyena populations. Conservation efforts emphasize the importance of protecting these animals and promoting sustainable alternatives to traditional medicine.
