A rare BEAST in our areas was shot: Brutal like the wolf, it spreads diseases dangerous for people, and it can mate with dogs! (VIDEO)
Hunters from the Hunting association "Fazan" from Draskovac caught a jackal in their yard.
The hunting association managed to neutralize one male specimen after the increasing information that wild dogs are becoming more spread in the north of Croatia.
Tha jackal was shot by Danijel Granatira, and when they compared the footprint of their last feet they confirmed it was this animal, reports mnovine.hr portal.
Hunters from Medjumurje are really restless when they caught and shot jackal because that is a wild dog, due to the lack of wolves, wild dog has no other natural enemy, and they are allowed to breed with no obstacles.

They were mostly noticed in Croatia and in Bosnia and Herzegovina, although they were recorded in Vojvodina, and in Belgrade, in the area of Borca in 2015.
Some locals reported jackals to the police who got into their yards, looking for food.
The forests of Pancevo are also known for the fact that some jackals appear there from time to time.
These wild dogs are a natural reservoir of various zoonoses (rabies, trichinellosis, alarioia) and as such can spread infections because they roam the areas at night which are inhabited by people and domestic dogs by day.
The drop in wolf population is the direct cause of the spread of jackals.
