Jackals are wild dogs usually found in arid climates. They are also known as the "thieves' dog". They are quick to sniff out sources of food, and clever enough to figure out how to get at them.[1] The Hallin stand jackal has become a popular pet in Evermore. Some Redguards in Bangkorai have successfully bred local jackals into mounts. Jackals are known to travel in small packs. Their meat is gamey.[2] Smugglers often sell their pelts and skulls to buyers.[3] The Order of the Lamp uses large jackals as mounts.[4]
