The permanent breeding range of the golden jackal (Canis aureus) in Europe was restricted to the Black Sea coast and Balkans in the 1960s. From the 1980s, a rapid and steady increase of the species occurrence has been documented throughout Europe. The observations of single individuals prevail, the proofs of breeding family groups are much more scarce. Here we present the second evidence of golden jackal breeding in Central Bohemia (Czech Republic) which took place near Dlouhá Lhota, about 50 km south of Prague, in 2022. Photographic evidence of adults and two cubs was made with the help of camera traps.
