What is a Ridgeback Hyena?
A Ridgeback Hyena is a member of the Hyaenidae family primarily found in East Africa.
Much like its cousin, the aardwolf, Ridgeback Hyenas feed on insects to sustain themselves.
It is the second largest member of the Hyaenidae family, surpassed only by the spotted hyena.
However, this is where the similarities between Ridgeback Hyenas and other hyenas end.
Ridgeback Hyenas exhibit a far more friendly and approachable personality compared to its
cousins, allowing them to be tamed and turned into loyal housepets. They get their names from
the characteristic "ridge" of fur running down their backs, but perhaps their most notable feature
are their wacky colours and the "mist" excreted from openings by their ribs and on their backsides.
It is believed to be caused by consuming toxic waste dumped into the waters that they drink from.
This mist is in no way harmful to the hyena or those around it, and appears to be solely cosmetic.

Extra:she plays trumpet!
smiling, i picked up the light instrument. i pressed its keys, listening to the thumping as it clicks down. i admired it for a moment.
i pressed my lips to the instrument, blowing slightly. from the moment i blew onto that instrument, it was love at first sight. that instrument has been the only thing i've ever loved that i hadn't grown tired of within a week.
ever since that seemingly small, insignificant moment, i've played. i've played my heart out through that trumpet. i played when i was distraught, i played when i was ecstatic; i played whenever. i played at 5pm and i played at 3am.
that instrument has been, and always will be, the love of my life.---
kinda wanna do a thing where she falls in love with a girl that makes her play her trumpet less and less bc the girl deems it "annoying," and grows tired of hearing the loud sound at 3am, until eventually she doesn't play at all. they break up, blossom picks the old thing up, and it's destiny once again. except this time she's practically forgotten how to play it and has to work for her talent.
