A jackal is the animal Anubis is most often depicted as in ancient Egyptian art; this is because that animal likely hung about the graveyards. It's coloring was black for both the dead, and the color was one of resurrection (like the Nile soil would be after a flood).

Who was it that the god Anubis married?

In ancient Egyptian mythology, Anubis, the god associated with mummification and the afterlife, was not typically depicted as having a consort or spouse in the same way as other deities. However, some sources suggest that he was associated with the goddess Nephthys, who is often considered his counterpart. Nephthys is linked to funerary rites and the protection of the dead, aligning with Anubis's roles.
