The map (blue) needs an update as the jackals also occur on Namibias coast. This habitat is also mentioned in the text under "Diet" and they are quite common on the Skeleton Coast feeding on dead seals. Flo Simba ( talk) 17:47, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
Animals don't typically prey on other carnivores near or above their size and African Wildcats frequently overlap in size with Jackals.
