It is classed by the IUCN as Least Concern, due to its widespread range in areas with optimum food and shelter.[1] It is a social species, whose basic social unit consists of a breeding pair, followed by its offspring. The golden jackal is highly adaptable, being able to exploit many foodstuffs, from fruit and insects to small ungulates.[3] Although similar to a small grey wolf, the golden jackal is distinguished by its lighter tread, its more slender build, its sharper muzzle and it shorter tail. Its winter fur also differs from the wolf's by its more fulvous-reddish colour.[5] Despite its name, the golden jackal is not closely related to black-backed and side-striped jackals, being instead more closely related to the grey wolf, coyote and Ethiopian wolf.[6](Fig. 10) The golden jackal features prominently in African, Middle-Eastern and Asian folklore and literature, where it is often portrayed as a trickster analogous to the fox and coyote in North American and European tales
