Golden jackals might be settling in the Czech Republic, hint multiple observations

(Pensoft Publishers) The first living golden jackal in the Czech Republic was reported by researchers from Charles University. The scientists captured the canid on camera multiple times over the span of a year and a half some 40 km away from Prague. Once considered native to northern Africa and southern Eurasia, the species seems to be quite rapidly extending its range towards the north of Europe. The study is published in the open access journal ZooKeys.
