No, Russia does not have native hyena populations. Hyenas are primarily found in Africa, with some species like the striped hyena also inhabiting parts of the Middle East, the Caucasus, and Central Asia.
However, striped hyenas (Hyaena hyaena) have been recorded in some neighboring regions, such as:
The Caucasus (Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Georgia)
Central Asia (Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and possibly southern Kazakhstan)
But these areas are outside of Russia’s current borders. In Russia, the climate and ecosystem are generally unsuitable for hyenas, which prefer arid or semi-arid environments.
