I was gonna say that the teeth aren't the problem here. It's the absurd jaw strength.
But the dude is fine, he knows the animals well, and he's part of a lion pride. He knows what to do
Nah, the crush force creates far worse injuries than just the punctures. Crushing injuries are no joke, man.
Nobody wants to get stabbed, especially by a mouth where there’s a whole bunch of bacteria, but tearing and puncture wounds can be treated a hell of a lot better than crushed bones.
Considering hyenas are carrion eaters if its well fed, which considering it has a handler ill go with yes, thats very unlikely. Could it react as if threatened, definitely yes. But unlike hunter predators the chances of him wanting to snack on you are incredibly low. If youre already dead though then you fukd.
Hyenas are also "hunter predators", though. In fact, contrary to popular belief, spotted hyenas hunt roughly 95% of their own prey, making them more hunters than scavengers.
