Jakkals en Wolf ("Fox/jackal and Wolf") is the general/generic Afrikaans title for a number of South Africa children's fables, featuring the battle between the sly fox and the slow-witted wolf.


Sometimes the names are inverted to Wolf en Jakkals.

Origins

The characters and the basic interaction between them a familiar feature of South African life through the engaging cartoons created by T.O. Honiball (1905-1990)[1]. The cartoons were a regular feature in Die Jongspan, an influential children's magazine, between 1942 and 1971, and were also collated in 14 published volumes between 1943 and 1978.

Another influence in establishing the Jakkals en Wolf tales as a national cultural treasure, was the collections of the tales collated and published by cultural historian Pieter W. Grobbbelaar (1930-2013)[2].
