Location: Serengeti National Park, Tanzania 🇹🇿 Bet you didn’t know 1. Jackals hunt alone or in pairs and they have to use cunning to survive because they’re not the biggest nor fastest on the block. 2. Their most common social unit is as a monogamous pair 3. They’re good long distance runners 4. The name Jackal comes from French chacal, which came from Persian, shoghal, which in turn in Sanskrit comes from a word meaning the howler (boy, that took long getting there) 5. Like the Fox in European folklore, the jackal is often represented in African folk tales as a trickster. 6. The jackal is a medium sized omnivorous mammal of the genus Canis (which includes wolves and the domestic dog). They hunt and are also scavengers. 7. In the Serengeti, jackals have stiff competition from hyenas. And lions. And cheetahs. But they’re tenacious as you will see. 8. The family defending its territory over a year does eventually split up as the young jackals move on to form their own families. 9. In Bengali tantrik tradition, jackals are considered representatives of the Goddess Kali (bet Indiana Jones didn’t know that when he visited the Temple of Doom) The goddess often appears as a jackal.

I love the animals who mate for life like jackals. They give us the best examples of co-parenting. Just glad we don't have to regurgitate to feed our babies!
I could notagree more! However, children would probably do not bother to eat partly digested food since in Sweden they give them surstromming and they like it for all their lives after it!
@@Ze_Moose ALOT !!! If you mean here specifically, nothing. I just find it in poor taste when a documentary about wildlife has more to do with the humans who made it than the wildlife in it. Peace to you.
@@Ze_Moose I don't know if they were human because I wasn't there. How do you know it wasn't a very talented buffalo holding the camera ? I doubt that happened because they don't have thumbs, but ya' never know. Maybe there was a meerkat collecting footage while being directed by the buffalo ? I would trust a wise old elephant with editing and posting content far more than just some silly human.
Well, aside from the African golden wolves being called "golden jackals" in this documentary, it actually was a very good documentary! I am glad this species was presented so beautifully! 😊
Not sure when this documentary was made, but it wasn't that long ago that African Golden Wolves were considered the same species as the Golden Jackal of Asia and SE Europe. It's only been a little while that they realized that it's a separate species more related to the gray wolf than to the actual golden jackal.
@Wolf gang Studies demonstrated that the African wolf is the descendant of a genetically admixed (Canid) of 72% gray wolf (Canis lupus) and 28% Ethiopian wolf (Canis simensis) ancestry, so that wolf 🐺enough for me.
@@awesomepixie419 the thought crossed my mind.. doesn't take away from what i've said about how they make their food look delicious tho.. but like im not sure but Said.. "hunger makes the best sauce"
8:35, yeah...if you do the same thing like that to your significant other after that person has been starving the whole day, you'd get the cold shoulder too! The female jackel was like, "And, I'm supposed to groom you?" Lol 😆
Great video. Thanks for all the hard work and original video content shot by you in 4K HDR no less! I'm curious as to how long it takes to shoot, edit, and upload a 4K HDR video that is over an hour long. Amazing work! Thank you so much! Looks awesome on my TCL 4K HDR TV
Like how both the mother and father jackal takes care of their children. When compared to jackals, it’s quite the opposite when it comes to foxes. In most fox families, it’s usually the female fox who does most of the work nurturing her cubs.
being single mom is not an easy job you had to care for the home you had to care for the young you had to care for the enemies remember kids you must obey your parents that had sacrifice their own life for you while you were young, life is hard and rough
You must be getting the two family litter's mixed up. Hunter and WhiteTip's pups are older than Zaybar and Storm's pups. This is probably because they had lost their last litter very early on and so it was time to mate again. Then like clockwork, another litter was born and that's why one litter is younger than the other families by maybe a half year? That's also why you don't see the Zaybar and Storm watching their pups "move out" only the Nahbi new young ones did.
@@54601nina Your a jerk aren't you? This person maybe lives in India and wants to see how the "INDIAN JACKAL" hunts/survives/where they make their homes ect. Maybe try and be a little less ignorant to others and you would understand this. And you'd know it would make them different because they live in a totally different place, duh!
We know so much about the jackal that humans created dogs out of them. Watching the this Doc is like watching super smart dogs in the wild. Idk about you but i know exactly what my dog is thinking at times.
These are not African wolves there's no such thing, the closest thing to them will be the wild dogs, which I love, jackals are more related to foxes, if you ask me
African wolf (Canis lupaster) as shown in video are wolves, carrying the ancestral DNA of the Grey wolf (Canis lupus) and the Ethiopian wolf (Canis simensis,) also Ethiopia is in Africa so that's two African wolf species. There are still Jackals in Africa the Side-striped jackal (Lupulella adusta) and Black-backed jackal (Lupulella mesomelas,) the Golden "Jackal" being of the genus (Canis) isn't a true Jackal as to why i call them Golden jackal wolf (Canis aureus) to set them apart from the true jackals of Africa genus (Lupulella) in common name.
Interesting and informative as far as the content and video quality goes; unfortunately the terribly written narrator’s scripts spoils it. It’s presented as if it’s a soap opera of sorts, assigning human emotions and relational dynamics to an animal that lives largely by instinct; such anthropomorphism is speculative at best and at worst deliberately distorts the viewer’s sense of the actual dynamics taking place. In essence, take what the narrator says with a pinch of salt and a hearty laugh, and just watch for the sake of enjoying the beauty and ingenuity of these special animals.
Yo! Everyone down there! This is the jackal! I’m tired of slinking around in the shadows! ... I’m coming down to the kill! Is that gonna be cool with everyone! ... I don’t want trouble!
I hate when narrators in documentaries put human thoughts and emotions to animals. She has no idea if the male jackal is grooming his partner because he’s trying to get her to groom him or show her appreciation for bringing her food. “give him the silent treatment”, seriously? Just give us facts about the animals, don’t act like you omnipotent and tell us what you think the animals are thinking. It makes it look like the narrator either knows very little about the animals or like she’s try to turn the documentary into a movie or something. The animals are just characters in a tv show.
Pretty good documentary but I prefer my nature programs without the 80's muzak and horrible humming. Almost turned it off. Leave out the music or at least keep it down so it doesn't distract from the Serengeti atmosphere. 😕

Nice film!
Those pups Calling mum non stop hahaha the noise was just too much......
Cute jackal cubs
Great documentary. Jackals are totally unappreciated compared to Lions, Tigers and cheetahs. Even Hyenas get more attention than jackals.
yes hyenas tend to get more attention but more of in a bad way
Wow! Nature does nothing for nothing! Impressive video! Good job friend! Have a good mood and growth!
can I use an excerpt of your video to create a video?
is your video royalties free?
or do you want to keep the license?

Just amazing
That hare standing up all beefed up like 🤣🤣🤣

At 25:43 i hated the hyenas ate her cubs , but they got to live too!
Look for PBS Nature special Year of the Jackal. It is a great follow to The Golden Wolf

Major editing problems. Sometimes puppies are shown at older age, then back again younger, then older again. It’s a weak time continuum.
Confusion has set in 😬🤨

Sooo cutee
My friend this is not golden jackal but the newly discovered African golden wolf.
Yes, you're right. We actually put a "NOTE" in the description box explaining the outdated information in the documentary.
It's hardly "newly discovered".
It's newly re-named as a result of it newly discovered lack of close genetic affinity to actual jackal species.

Are they called golden wolf's or golden jackals, cuz wolf's and jackals are two different species.
So Anubis was a wolf all along. Mmm
