The image depicts an African golden jackal within an outdoor enclosure, viewed through the diagonal grid of a blurred chain-link fence, likely at the Jos Wildlife Park in Jos, Nigeria. The jackal, a medium-sized canid with sandy-brown fur, stands squarely on dry, earthy ground in the center of the frame, its head turned slightly to the left. Its mouth is slightly open, with a portion of its tongue visible. Distinct shadows, including one from the animal, are cast on the ground. The enclosure features dense green foliage and trees behind the perimeter fence, with a segment of blue sky visible at the top right. A dark, possibly concrete, structure or wall is present on the right side of the enclosure. The scene is illuminated by direct sunlight.
