Black-backed Jackal jostle (Canis mesomelas)

[Dave Barnes]

The Black-backed Jackal is endemic to Africa,
found in two separate subpopulations: one in East Africa; and one in southern Africa.
The species is generally widespread. Black-backed Jackals are relatively unspecialized
canids and well suited for an opportunistic lifestyle in a wide variety of habitats.

Fabulous interaction Dave! The submissive posture and dust kick on the rh Jackal make it for me!

Dave,
Lovely interaction. The reaction of each one of the trio is lovely. A little bit of space at the right would have been good too. Thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
