Known for its pack mentality, Mightyena often hunts in groups of around ten, coordinating their efforts to corner and defeat prey. This behavior highlights their intelligence and strong social bonds within their species.

Its design draws inspiration from hyenas and wolves, combining their most striking features into a unique and recognizable creature.
