Hyaenodonta (sometimes referred as "Hyaenodontida"[1]) is an extinct group of hypercarnivorous eutherian mammals,[2] originally classified along with the oxyaenids as part of Creodonta.[3] Hyaenodonts may have evolved in Africa in the Paleocene.[4]
Hyaenodonts differed from Carnivora in that they replaced their deciduous dentition slower in development than carnivorans.[5]
