Description

Caught on cameratrap placed near the riverbed of Nata River (the point refers to where the animal was). I cannot exclude that it could also be just a dog, because the place is highly used by humans, dogs, stray dogs and cattle. The size seems anyway smaller than the stray dogs I've encountered and also the morphology and the colours suggest me some wild animal (which in this case could be the black-backed jackal, Lupulella mesomelas, or the side-striped jackal, Lupulella adustus).
Waiting for a better ID.
