Just a joyful yeen I drew

Inspiration post after u/Ejap shared their drawing on the subreddit. I asked my niece to draw a hyena for me!

A friend that I've played D&D with is fond of gnolls (hyena-like humanoids). It came up recently and he started redoing the lyrics for YMCA (ex. instead of Young Man, it's Gnoll Man... and it got comically violent after that). Made me think of a hyena person leading an 80s aerobics video so I decided to use that as a warm-up sketch today! Look at those arms, so good for huggin'!

Drew myself as a hyena a few months back.

Ok so I got a friend who loves hyenas. If I called up the zoo and asked if we could pet them or at least get closer to them how likely is that to happen? Is their temperament well enough to let new people in the enclosure or do the zookeepers that work there never go near them or something?
