Features: This is a book about searching: It is a story that concerns life and survival; It is a game that exists between humans and animals, and among animals themselves, involving barriers and traps. "If you were also locked in a zoo for ten years, you would understand. As humans occupy more space, they will enclose more animals. When there is no more space left to enclose, it will all be human territory, and everything inside the cages will be humans." "Oh, it must be interesting to see how they talk about animals then." Among animals, especially those with the reputation of being fierce, none is as close to humans—perhaps for no apparent reason—as the jackal, and it tries hard to be so. The virtues of the jackal have been hidden for a long time, and it has become habitual to misunderstand it. The power of public opinion is immense, so the jackal stands out in its special metaphorical relationship between humans and animals, and between humans and their created civilized world. Or, when viewing or trying to repair all natural relationships with emotional color, the jackal becomes an extremely important clue.
