Just so, where can I find jackals?

Furthermore, what is a pack of jackals called? Jackals hunt in pairs instead of looking for prey alone. • A group of jackals is sometimes called a pack or a tribe. • Jackals usually have from two to four pups in a litter.
Similarly one may ask, are Jackals dangerous?
Jackals are opportunistic predators, feeding on small to medium-sized animals. They weigh up to 14 kg and can grow to 85 cm in length. While they are not normally dangerous, they are still known to attack humans.
Do jackals still exist?
Jackals live primarily in Africa, but in different regions. The black-backed jackal stays mostly in savannas and woodlands. There are two discrete populations. One lives at the southern tip of the continent in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and Zimbabwe.
