野干（梵語悉伽羅形色青黃如狗羣行夜鳴聲如狼也字又作射干案子虛賦云騰遠射干司馬彪郭璞等注並云射干似狐而小能緣木射音夜廣志云巢於危巖高木也禪經云見一野狐又見野干是也）。

Jackal (野干: in Sanskrit, śṛgāla. Its shape and color are blue-yellow like a dog; it moves in packs, and its cries at night sound like a wolf. The character is also written 射干. According to the Zixu fu: 'Tengyuan and shegan.' Sima Biao, Guo Pu, and others all annotate: 'The shegan resembles a fox but is smaller and can climb trees.' She is pronounced ye. The Guangzhi states: 'It nests in perilous cliffs and tall trees.' The Chan scripture saying 'seeing a wild fox and also seeing a yegan' refers to this).
