CRITTERS

by Elmsaafir - last update: Sep 30, 2004

Animals

Camels -- KSA
I will endeavor to chronicle some of my favorite animal encounters while travelling in the following paragraphs...
Jerboa -- KSA

Rodents

While out working with the Saudi National Guard, one of the soldiers caught a jerboa, a jumping rodent sort of like a gerbil. It was really neat to see one of these up close in the wild. I took a few pictures, and then we let him go; after a couple of seconds getting his orientation, he took off like a miniature kangaroo...

Snakes

In the Djemma El Fna, Marrakesh, you've got a bunch of snake charmers. The rumor is that they bash the snakes teeth out to keep them safe, but it's still pretty intimidating being in such close proximity to them...
Cobra -- Morocco
Fuzzy Dog -- Uruguay

Dogs

This was the funniest looking dog (in a good way, in case the owners ever see this) that I've ever seen. He was hanging out by his house in Colonia, Uruguay as I was wandering around.
