Hizbullah Is Destroying Animal Life in Israel's North
(Jerusalem Post) Alan Rosenbaum - Rona Nadler Valancy, chief of the Agamon Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in the Galilee, said, "The war in the north has caused tremendous losses to the animal habitat." "While, for example, adult birds can escape fires by flying away, there are nestlings and hatchlings and even fledglings that don't have the capability to escape a fire, so they all perish." She adds that the reptile population in the North has been devastated, because they move too slowly to escape the fires. Small mammals such as hedgehogs are also susceptible. Even the animals that can escape the devastation find that when they return, their habitat has been destroyed.
