The wolf (Canis lupus) is a mammal from the Canidae family. They have a joint origin with the domestic dog (Canis familiaris) and experts say that they are the forefather of all existing dogs today. In B&H they prevail on highland areas of the Dinaric Alps. They feed on herbivores and specifically on species that are most common in the area where they habitat. (Željka Šaravanja)
The jackal (Canis aureus) belongs to the dog species (Canis). They hunt animals that are small to middle sized, and also are known as vultures. During the day they spend their time hidden in bushes, and at nightfall set off for all-night hunting. While they hunt small prey by themselves, larger prey is hunted down in packs and that kind of hunting is followed by unpleasant yowling, by which jackals communicate. (Željka Šaravanja)
