Cautious animal on Friday night

 

Jackal, Golden jackal     Šaakal or harilik šaakal          Canis aureus

A comparatively new animal in our nature: only in 2011 they were thought to exist in Estonia and in 2012 the first animal was shot in the Matsalu area.

In their traditional habitats their social living and cleverness is valued  despite the fact that they clearly cause damage in the surrounding nature.

The migrant camera was in two different locations on the Haeska shore to start with this autumn. The first place was a promising patch of grass that however became submerged in water with the rising seawater level and storm winds so that a boat was needed to fetch the camera.

Flights to  find night location looked like this at sunset

Although the goose migration still continues the camera location regrettably did not hit the best place. As can be seen there is not much grass growth on the pastures despite the warm weather.

Soon Tiit Hunt will give the watchers a review of events and information on where the camera soon will be placed.
