Golden Jackal in Danube Delta, 2013
Female wolf track in Sweden (Source: public facebook group, author name in the picture), The prints were extensively analyzed by GOJAGE and it was assumed that these prints are not of jackal type. OCB suspected the jackal shape by analyzing 5 photographs of 8-9 cm, since Nov 2019 until 12th of February 2021. GOJAGE members will perform a winter wildlife survey in Sweden.
On 12th of February 2021 jackal possible footprints and track appeared in the region of Grimsö Wildlife Research Station (wildlife management, ecology and hunting) from Örebro County in Sweden. The photographs were analyzed by two Romanian GOJAGE members, Ovidiu Banea and Cristian Remus Papp and by Adrian Gridan from National Institute for Research and Development in Forestry “Marin Dracea” (I.N.C.D.S.) Brasov, Romania. The uploaded pictures might show prints of jackal but without additional indirect or direct methods this observation remains C4 - No evidence (GOJAGE Expert Criteria) or C2 - Weak evidence (SCALP modified, see in Hatlauf et al, 2016)
