Classification

Living carnivores (i.e. members of the mammal order Carnivora) are commonly divided into two groups, feliform (including the cat family, Felidae) and caniform (including wolves and dogs, Canidae). Hyenas and the aardwolf are classified as feliform carnivores, along with mongooses (Herpestidae) and civets (Viverridae). (See a Feliform vs Caniform chart)
