Aardwolf's cousin (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hyena

'aardwolf's cousin' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for hyena that I've seen before include "African native" , "Scavenging animal" , "Carnivorous animal with howl like laughter" , "Carnivorous mammal" , "Laughing carnivore" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
