Official card text

When an opponent has 10 or less life, if this permanent is an enchantment, it becomes a 3/2 Jackal creature.

How it works : Lurking Jackals

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    A noncreature permanent that turns into a creature can attack, and its {T} abilities can be activated, only if its controller has continuously controlled that permanent since the beginning of their most recent turn. It doesn't matter how long the permanent has been a creature.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Once it becomes a creature, it will not change back into an enchantment if your opponent's life total goes back above 10.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Once it becomes a creature, it is no longer an enchantment.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
