Sometimes Hyena's are shown being kept as a pet. Are they suitable for domestication at all?

Reply to Aurá: Last Survivor of An Unknown Tribe | NHK documentary (2019) - 30 years ago, 2 members of an unknown tribe - nicknamed Auré and Aurá - emerged from the Amazon jungle. Their language baffled experts. What happened to the tribe these men belonged to? And did why only they survive? [00:49:00] by pomod

Very interesting.
They seemed unable and/or unwilling to adapt, even murdered a man with a machete.
It's hard to grasp that they didn't pick up on the language others spoke either. Were they that primitive or maybe mentally handicapped?

Whatever the case, it's a cruel fate.
