Summary

This account [of The Anteater, Springbok and Lynx] is again followed by the Anteater’s laws concerning the habits of various animals, such as the jackal, the 'Löffelhund' (Proteles), etc., who were, once upon a time, men. (L II.-2. 323-356.) The Jackal becomes a Jackal and marries a She-Jackal. They have Jackal children and he digs out a hollow for them to live in. They eat people and are beasts of prey.
