Jackal
The golden jackal (Canis aureus), also known as the common jackal, belongs to the Canidae family. According to current estimates, it has the second smallest population among Greece's large carnivores, after the wolf. The golden jackal is a medium-sized carnivore with a highly opportunistic diet. Although primarily carnivorous, it is an omnivorous species that readily feeds on a wide variety of plant material and fruits whenever available.
