The World of Predators

Jackals, typically associated with open plains, are also adept at surviving in forested areas. In these habitats, jackals rely on their sharp senses and cunning nature to navigate dense vegetation and hunt smaller prey like rodents and birds.

Forest-dwelling jackals often scavenge from larger predators and play an essential role in the ecosystem by keeping the environment clean of carrion. Their adaptability allows them to thrive in diverse environments, but habitat fragmentation remains a growing concern for their populations.
