TEL Aviv is typical-Tier Israel Hyraxes are cute, fluffy and has a distinctive sound. But they are also dangerous, due to the severe plague.
Animals are also rabbits rock, moved to Galilee and citizens and the surrounding gardens are damaging residential areas. Scientists have discovered a reason why Hyraxes like their houses from the rest of the debris of the building to make.
Research published these results in the journal scientists of the University of Haifa of wildlife. Many people in the West have to listen to know Hyraxes, but it is very common in the Middle East, said "lead researcher Arik Kershenbaum BBC nature."
Also explains, in Galilee, no longer make it Kershenbaum their home in the rocky hills and rustic cliffs.
"they came into the villages and eat everything they find," whale Kershenbaum, was cited: the BBC Neature on Sunday (7/5/2011).
To learn more about their behavior to find, the Kershenbaum and his colleagues observed the movement of the animals concerned for their livelihood. They keep the radio on the collar track a group of Hyraxes and they follow.
"It out, a pile of boulders draws attention to Hyraxes activated," he added.
They make their home in underground caves and crevices created by people through a pile of rubble. It turns out that Hyraxes want to rest under a scorching sun, but they want to stay close to the hole of the piles of stone that is perfectly made for them.
"We confirm that they are interested in people in a pile of stone, rather than the garden" Pungkasnya.
There is also some concern about the public health posed by Hyraxes if life of the people close. This animal is as able bring skin Hämoflagellaten (disease causing Protozoan parasites of the genus Leishmania and transmitted by bites), which can be transmitted to humans.
But early research indicates by a pile of stones, then press the Hyraxes from the settlement and return to the cliffs is. (Type)
