Athens and its ally Plataea, some 11,000 hoplites in total, attacked a Persian expeditionary force of some 25,000 infantry and 1,000 cavalry, with 100,000 armed sailors acting as reserves. Herodotus claims that the Greeks counted 6,400 dead Persians on the field and states that the Athenians lost 192 men in the battle and the Plataeans lost 11.
The Battle of Marathon (Greek: Μάχη τοῦ Μαραθῶνος, Machē tou Marathōnos) took place in 490 BC, during the first Persian invasion of Greece. The battle was the culmination of the first attempt by Persia, under King Darius I, to subjugate Greece. The Greek army decisively defeated the more numerous Persians, marking a turning point in the Greco-Persian Wars.
The Battle of the Jackal
Within the 2IJS topics taxonomy is on the first place. After recent discoveries and molecular studies it was suggested that the estimated current geographic range of golden jackal in Africa represents the African wolf range (Viranta et al, 2017). The results and conclusions highlight the need for improved studies of geographic range and population surveys for the taxon, which is classified as ‘least concern’ by the IUCN due to its erroneous identification as golden jackal. As a species exclusively distributed in Africa, investigations of the biology and threats to African wolf are needed.
This species named by Spassov, wolf-jackal (Canis "lupaster") appears to exist in N Africa from the late Pleistocene. However, remains the question: is there a golden jackal (C. aureus or more specific African jackal C. anthus?) together with it in Africa? (Spassov, 2018). Moehlman names this species African golden jackal (Moehlman et al, 2018)
After 2508 years another Battle will take place in Marathon Bay on 31st of October and on 1st of November 2018! The battle of the Eurasian jackal with the younger African golden jackal or wolf? Or both?
Welcome to Marathon Bay! Welcome to the battle!
*See the winners works in Chapter 1 Biology and Behaviour, Chapter 4 Taxonomy and Morphology and in Chapter 5 Phylogeography, Genetics and Biogeography already published in the 2IJS Book or participate to the Session 1, 4 and Session 5 during the meeting in Marathon Bay to be there during the battle.

The Battle of Monitoring and The Battle of Sustainable Hunting
During 2IJS participants are invited to a workshop dedicated to monitoring techniques. The authors, Jennifer Hatlauf, Nathan Ranc and Miha Krofel will explain actual monitoring techniques. Complementary methods for jackal monitoring will be suggested as the BAM proved many limits beside the possible stress on jackal. Constructive debate will end with the 2IJS guidelines. Visit Session 2 Population Ecology & Monitoring on Wednestay 17:00H after the "jackal sleep" and the Poster Session (Part 1). 2IJS workshop on Wednesday 19:30H, Biostars 2IJS Hall.
Hunting is a tool to reduce jackal numbers on short time. On medium time, in foxes was seen that hunting might destroy the clusters structure and the resulting effect is the population grow. In Bulgaria, the jackal population started to be stable or even decreased in some years. Is lethal management a solution for game management authorities? Are there non-lethal methods to control jackal numbers. People in airports are trying to mittigate human-jackal conflict using other methods of jackal and coyote removal. Is there a limit? Visit Session 8 on Friday, 11:00 after we come back from the excursion and after the "jackal nap" (Stanley Gehrt and Stoyan Stoyanov).
