A jackal bit a one-year-old baby in a nearby tent at the Gvanim Stream camping site in Ramon Crater on Friday night.

According to the Nature and Parks Authority, the father said that he left a small opening in the tent when he went out at night, and returned after hearing his wife screaming while searching for the child. "Apparently, the jackal dragged the child a few meters before releasing him".

Magen David Adom (MDA) teams evacuated the baby to Soroka Hospital in Be’er Sheva in moderate condition, with bite marks on his face. Later, the hospital reported that the baby was mildly injured.

Soroka Hospital stated that the one-year-and-two-month-old baby is hospitalized in the pediatric emergency department. "Upon arrival, he underwent medical evaluation and imaging tests, and subsequently received the required medical treatment, including vaccinations. A notification was sent to the Ministry of Health, and now the baby is hospitalized in light condition."

I remember watching Wild Kingdom as a kid, and they showed the real deal of critters attacking and eating other critters.

Me and my siblings too. It always cracked us up that Marlin Perkins, between segments, always found a way to tie in the behavior of wild animals to selling life insurance.
