Jackals – information
Jackals make a variety of sounds. They communicate with each other by yelling, barking, and sounds resembling a siren. In addition, this sound leads to the willingness of other jackals during the hunt. Despite the fact that jackals are known as scavengers, they also hunt and kill themselves. Lactating female jackals change their place of residence every two weeks to protect their young from predators.
There are three main types of jackals discovered on the planet: the jackal (Canis aureus), the striped jackal (Canis adustus) and the jackal (Canis mesomelas). They differ in appearance and habitat. A jackal ordinary lives in East Africa. Also there live representatives of two other species. It is noteworthy that they occupy different territories.
The jackal is not a close relative of other species; rather, they are similar to a wolf and a coyote. The jackal is the heaviest jackal in the world, it weighs about 15-odd kilograms. Jackpot jackals prefer dwellings with numerous outlets. Of the three kinds of jackals, the striped ones are less aggressive, while the cappers are considered the most aggressive.
The baby jackal takes 10 days to open the eyes after birth. Jackals are by nature very dependent on the territory and always zealously guard it. Jacked puppies take care of newborns. Most newborn jackals die in the first 14 days after birth, and in order to raise the population, it is important to have guardians at the initial stage.
