I removed the bat-eared fox, a jackal. The simian wolf is not one either, but I left it there in case the taxanomy we use wikipedia still sees it as such...Sabine 06:17, 12 Nov 2004 (UTC)
Any info on what species of jackal Anubis would have been?--Sonjaaa 00:34, 25 November 2005 (UTC)
'The Simian Jackal is actually a wolf that is thought to have taken on the appearance of a large fox or jackal through convergent evolution (by adopting a similar diet of small rodents)...'
But what about the new type of dog developed in Russia to sniff out drugs, known as the 'jacksy' (a cross between a jackal and a husky)? - I will try to find the reference as soon as possible. If husky (not far from a wolf) + jackal = viable offspring, would this mean that wolves (or at least huskies) and jackals are the same species? Or at least, not as far away from each other as the quote above seems to imply? And what exactly are the distinctions between wolves and jackals that allow the Simian Jackal to be classified as a wolf? WolfieInu 10:39, 8 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
