Golden jackal was created in 1758.

the Golden Jackal comes from the color of the fear on the Animal. :)

Canis aureus is the binomal name for a golden jackal

The diet of a golden jackal depends greatly on the area they live in. They are omnivorous, and extremely opportunistic.

There are three species of jackal, all in the genus canis, the same genus as all dogs. They are:

golden jackal, Canis aureus

side-striped jackal, Canis adustus

black-backed jackal, Canis mesomelas
