Golden jackal expansion in northernmost Europe: records in Finland

Mammalian Biology, 2023
AbstractThe Eurasian golden jackal (Canis aureus) has been rapidly expanding its distribution range in Europe. Whether jackals will be able to adapt to new environmental conditions in northern Europe remains largely unresolved. Herein we provide additional evidence for the species’ ability to colonize northern environments by presenting the new records

Nyctereutes terblanchei: The raccoon dog that never was [PDF]

, 2012
Fossils of the raccoon dog (genus Nyctereutes) are particularly rare in the African PlioPleistocene record, whilst the sole living representative, Nyctereutes procyonoides, is found in eastern Asia and parts of Europe. In southern Africa, only one fossil

Eurasian golden jackal as host of canine vector-borne protists [PDF]

Parasites & Vectors, 2017
Jackals are medium-sized canids from the wolf-like clade, exhibiting a unique combination of ancestral morphotypes, broad trophic niches, and close phylogenetic relationships with the wolf and dog. Thus, they represent a potential host of several pathogens with diverse transmission routes.

Disentangling canid howls across multiple species and subspecies: Structure in a complex communication channel. [PDF]

, 2016
Wolves, coyotes, and other canids are members of a diverse genus of top predators of considerable conservation and management interest. Canid howls are long-range communication signals, used both for territorial defence and group cohesion.

Fault Diagnosis Method for Power Transformers Based on Improved Golden Jackal Optimization Algorithm and Random Configuration Network

IEEE Access, 2023
The problem of the low accuracy of Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) in diagnosing transformer faults is addressed by proposing an Improved Golden Jackal Optimization (IGJO) based Stochastic Configuration Network (SCN) method.

Genetic variability of the grey wolf Canis lupus in the Caucasus in comparison with Europe and the Middle East: distinct or intermediary population? [PDF]

, 2014
Despite continuous historical distribution of the grey wolf (Canis lupus) throughout Eurasia, the species displays considerable morphological differentiation that resulted in delimitation of a number of subspecies.
