Those can be a REAL problem. Heck, they've been known to take on a lion one-on-one (sometimes you're the pigeon and sometimes you're the statue!). I was talking to the archaeologist for L.A. County Museum (the one at La Brea Tar Pits) and he said most "diggers" thought hyenas were the reason human remains are so hard to find, especially complete ones.

Also, dingos are dogs gone wild-lost their fear of man (most of it).
