Threatened by the guns of Southern Africa's farmers, some bIack-backed jackaIs have found a new shelter in a restricted and arid area: Namibia's SkeIeton Coast. Here, they adapt to a new Iifestyle. They are Iearning to catch new coastaI prey, and how to coIIaborate to catch bigger ones such as the fur seals. This requires cooperative hunting--a behavior rarely seen amongst these canids--and therefore sociaI and communication skiIls. Some jackaIs succeed, others become scavengers...or die. By folIowing a few remarkable individuals over a period of four years, the team has crafted an intimate portrait of an emerging behavior in a rapidIy evoIving environment. |
