This must be the flattest roadkill I have seen. The skull just looks strange for Jackal? I have seen Serval and Aardwolf in this area. Perhaps a Mammal expert could help? |

Long canine teeth and pointed molars exclude Aardvark. Fur without obvious spots or stripes (not a Serval). Most likely Black-backed Jackal. |
