		+	They're commonly found near rivers, canals, lakes, and seashores, tending to avoid foothills and mountainous terrain. They typically live in family groups, comprising a breeding pair and their young, and often occupy areas where wolf populations are scarce or absent.

		+	Golden jackals frequently pilfer from camps in search of sustenance, emitting distinctive howls during the night-time. This is occasionally confused for that of wolves unfamiliar with the distinction. They've been observed integrating into wolf packs, scavenging from wolf-hunted prey without provoking aggression from the wolves themselves. Notably, in select cases within India, solitary jackals have forged alliances with tigers, partaking in the consumption of the larger feline's kills. These jackals also serve as sentinels, alerting the tigers to imminent threats.

The smallest of the grey wolves, the jackal is smaller and possesses shorter legs, a shorter tail, a more enlongated torso and a narrower and more pointed muzzle. Its coat varies in colour from a pale creamy yellow in summer to dark tawny beige in winter. They are abundant along rivers, canals, lakes and seashores, and avoid foothills and mountainous areas.
