In Gir Sanctuary went for Safari in an open jeep and we could see some birds flying around. We spotted few Indian Jackal in the forest under the tree during the open Jeep safari in the forest.
It is small to medium-sized animal with fur that is a mixture of black and white. Black hairs predominate on the middle of the back and tail. The belly, chest and the sides of the legs are white.
They are mostly seen in lowlands on the outskirts of towns, villages and farms, where they shelter in holes among ruins or dense bush.
They are opportunistic omnivores, predators of small- to medium-sized animals and proficient scavengers. They feed on rodents, reptiles, fruit and insects.

Nice captures.
great shots. Have a wonderful weekend
I think jackals are one of the fastest disappearing animals from forest, and except the wildlife sanctuaries we couldn’t see them anywhere. Wonderful capture
Beautiful series of photos.
Best regards, Irma

A nice looking aanimal Rajesh. Reminds me of our Red Fox.
Nice captures! Guess they're not easy to spot. Think they blend into the landscape very well.
a dog-like, friendly looking predator. Well needed in the forest :)
That is cool :)
The jackals have that very crafty appearance which attests to their adaptability as hunters and scavengers.
Lovely captures.
