Egyptian caracal crossed the border and attacked Jewish militants (2 photos)
At the end of March, a caracal, a small and cute wild cat, entered the base of the Jewish occupiers in the vicinity of Mount Kharif. Usually a timid animal, it behaved aggressively and attacked several terrorists, causing them injuries of varying severity.
Jewish journalists assumed that the caracal crossed the border and came from Egypt. Details of the attack are unknown.
After the incident, an inspector from the Department of Nature Conservation and Reserves was called to the base, who caught the unfortunate animal. The caracal was transported to a specialized hospital for wild animals. After a veterinary examination, a decision will be made on whether the long-eared predator can be released into the wild.
The caracal is a medium-sized predator from the cat family that lives in arid desert regions. An adult reaches a length of 60 to 130 centimeters and can reach speeds of up to 80 kilometers per hour while hunting. Caracals usually hunt rabbits and rodents and are afraid of people.
