The Indian Scops Owl is a nocturnal bird that is rarely seen during the daytime. It has prominent ear tufts and dark eyes. The coloration is variable, ranging from gray to brown, but dark eyes, thin black border around the facial disc, and lightly streaked underparts remain constant. It inhabits forests, forest edges, parks, and gardens from lowlands up into foothill and montane regions.

The Indian Jackal (Canis aureus indicus), also known as the Himalayan Jackal, is a subspecies of golden jackal native to Pakistan, India, Bhutan, Burma and Nepal. This is the only species of Jackal on the Indian subcontinent and it is found in almost every habitat in the country, inspiring numerous folk stories and songs, but also a few questionable practices that have led to poaching of the wild canid.
