For anyone interested, let me add that hyenas give birth through their pseudo-penis. Have fun in the hyena rabbit hole, there is lots to be discovered!

If that helps, it's actually a really long clitoris which is used to urinate, copulate and well... give birth. The first-born cubs are usually stillborn as the pseudo-penis needs to rip open, which does take some extra time the first time around. There's also a solid chance the mother dies in the process.
