How to get or buy Hyena Pet in Grow A Garden

The Hyena is an Uncommon pet that will arrive in the second part of the Safari Harvest Event in Grow A Garden. Pets in this game aren't just cosmetic companions—they also provide useful passive bonuses that help players progress faster. The Hyena is no exception, especially if you enjoy building pet setups that work together. In this guide, we'll go over what the Hyena looks like, how to get it during the event, and whether it's worth picking up based on its tier and passive ability.

Appearance

The Hyena has a blocky, playful look like most pets in Grow A Garden. Its body is light tan with darker brown accents on the ears, snout, and paws. The face has simple black square eyes and a large square nose, giving it a friendly but slightly mischievous expression. Despite being based on a wild animal, it still has that cute, collectible feel—fitting perfectly into a cozy garden setup.

How to Get the Hyena Pet

Event Unlock Method 
The Hyena becomes available in the Safari Shop once the server-wide Global Points reach 165,000,000,000 during the Safari Harvest Event. This means:

• Every player's contributions add up.
• You're not unlocking it individually—once the community reaches the milestone, it appears for everyone.
• You still need to purchase it yourself using event currency once it unlocks.

This system encourages players to stay active in the event and help push global progress forward. If you've played past Safari events, this will feel familiar: collect points, push milestones, and wait for the rewards to open.

Alternative: Buying the Hyena Online

If you don't want to wait for the milestone or grind event currency, some players choose to purchase the Hyena pet directly from trusted marketplaces. For example, U4GM currently lists the Hyena Pet for $9.99, with fast delivery and safe service. This can be a shortcut if you:

• Missed the event
• Don't have enough Safari currency
• Prefer to skip the grind and start using the pet right away

Just be sure you're comfortable with third-party trading before you go this route.

Passive Ability: Pack Hunting

Pack Hunting: Gains additional XP per second for every Hyena in your garden. Requires at least one non-Hyena pet equipped to activate.

What this means in practice:

• The Hyena works best in groups.
• If you equip multiple Hyenas, they boost each other.
• But you must have another pet equipped or the passive won't turn on.

This is one of those passives that rewards collection strategy. It favors players who like:

• Efficiency setups
• AFK XP farming
• Optimized garden layouts

Even though the Hyena is Uncommon, the scaling potential makes it surprisingly strong when used correctly.

Value Analysis

Overall, the Hyena's value depends on your playstyle:

• Great Value if you like building XP farming teams or collect multiple copies of pets.
• Average Value if you only plan to own one, because the passive benefits scale only when you have more Hyenas.
• Better Than Most Uncommon Pets because of the teamwork passive, but not as flashy as some higher-tier event pets.

If you're someone who enjoys optimization, this pet becomes a long-term investment rather than just a cute companion.

Summary

The Hyena Pet is an upcoming Uncommon pet in Grow A Garden that becomes available during the second part of the Safari Harvest Event, once the community reaches 165 billion Global Points. It has a group-scaling passive that rewards collecting multiples and pairing it with at least one other pet. Whether you grind for it or purchase it online, the Hyena fits well in XP farming setups and is a strong choice for players who like to optimize.
