Golden Jackal - Canis Aureus or Asiatic Jackal
Our field staff photographed a golden jackal or Asiatic jackal (Canis aureus) at Km. 2 in Sublangka Wildlife Sanctuary .
The golden jackal is generally 70-105 centimeters (28-42 inches) in length, with a tail length of about 25 centimetres (10 inches). It's standing height is approximately 38-50 cm (16-20 inches) at the shoulder. Average weight is 7-15 kilograms(15-33 pounds) with males tending to be 15% heavier than the females. Jackals are a strictly monogamous species. They are very capable hunters of small to medium sized prey such as rabbits, rodents, birds, insects, fish and monkeys.
