Rock Hyrax near Mt. Sinai. This shot was actually taken through some wire around an
enclosure where a number of these animals were being kept by some Jeballiya Bedouin. Rock
Hyraxes are actually most closely related to elephants(!) and are found throughout the
deserts of the Middle East and parts of Africa. Herbivores and diurnal, they live among
the rocks and are excellent climbers and jumpers.
