Side-striped jackal — size comparison — facts and sources

The side-striped jackal uses wetter sub-Saharan African landscapes, often with scrub and scattered trees. It may occur near fields and settlements. It is generally less associated with extremely dry, completely open ground than the black-backed jackal.

Its varied diet includes fruit, invertebrates, small animals and carrion. Food choices change with local resources.

Chiefly nocturnal, it occurs alone, in pairs and in family groups. Scent marks and use of particular areas help organise relations between neighbours.
