What is jackals and hounds game?

As an AI language model, I don't know of any specific game called "Jackals and Hounds." However, I can provide some information about the animals themselves.

Jackals are members of the canine family and usually live in the savannas, deserts, and woodlands of Africa and Asia. They are opportunistic scavengers and hunters who mainly feed on small mammals, birds, and occasionally plants. They are social animals and often live in groups of pairs or larger packs with a defined hierarchy.

Hounds, on the other hand, are a group of dog breeds that are bred for hunting. They are often used to track and chase prey, such as foxes, rabbits, deer, and other game. Hounds have a keen sense of smell and high endurance, allowing them to follow a scent trail for extended periods over long distances.

There may be variations of a game called "Jackals and Hounds," also known as "Lambs and Tigers," that originated in India and involves a group of players attempting to capture or escape from one another while taking on different roles. However, more specific information about the game would be needed for a more accurate description.
