Conference on golden jackal in Italy

Eliante and the Life Euro large carnivores are promoting a first workshop dedicated to the discussion on the state of diffusion of the Golden Jackal, with particular reference to the areas of recent Italian colonization. Crispus NGO Sibiu Romania was invited to this online informal meeting.

The aim of the discussion is to better understand the following aspects:

• State of knowledge on the species. Trend of the population and range in Europe and Italy

• Key-elements of possible conflict with man: fear, lack of knowledge, damage, conflict with hunting.

• What monitoring? Planned or opportunistic? How to deal with other carnivore monitoring programs running in the area.

• Strategies for the species protection. Improve knowledge to protect. Collaboration between institutions and volunteers. What is done in other countries.

• Cultural, perception and human dimension aspects.

Between 31st of March 2021 and 5th of April 2021 took place in Romania a bioacoustic monitoring reasearch, BMR2021 in ecological systems specific to golden jackal located in two hunting terrains from western and eastern parts of Romania (FV 2 Cheglevici, Timis county and FV 28 Gura Dobrogei, Constanta county) and in two critical areas in Danube Delta (Caraorman and Letea martime levees) where the density is controlled regularly by Crispus NGO Sibiu.

Ecology Department of Crispus NGO Sibiu and Asociația pentru Conservarea Diversității Biologice (ACDB) Vrancea together with Asociația pentru Managementul Ecosistemelor Harghita are proposing RoHilac project, a three year study in Romania, on natural areas in hunting terrains and Danube Delta.

During "BMR2021" a total number of 35 calling stations were installed in a study area of 40.000 ha. Density of 0,7-3,3 territorial groups / 10km2 were calculated. In 2010-2011, Crispus NGO conducted the first survey in hunting terrains and Danube Delta. 

Using acoustic methods in 2010-2011, first estimates of jackal densities for Romania were 1.41-1.74 territorial groups/10 km2 in areas from Giurgiu, 0.59-0.73 territorial group/10 km2 on the hunting terrain from Calarasi County, 0.46-0.52 territorial groups/10 km2 in Dobrogea (Dobrudzha) and 1.56-1.74 territorial groups/10 km2 in Danube Delta maritime levees (0.55-0.61 territorial groups/10 km2 for Grindul Chituc and 2.36-2.64 territorial groups/10 km2 for Grindul Lupilor).

Before 15th of April 2021, Crispus NGO Sibiu, ACDB and Danube Delta Biopshere Reserve Authority (DDBRA) will resume a TECHNICAL REPORT of actual Golden Jackal density in Danube Delta.
