The Jumping Jackal (formerly Fighting Panther) is a enemy introduced in Dragon Quest VI.

Characteristics

Massive man-beasts wearing macho purple wrestling attire and armed with two massive metal claws to maul prey, the jumping jackal slices and strikes with searing speed. They can spin so fast they whip up a chaotic cyclone with vicious vortex, slicing all enemies with whipping wind.
