KUWAIT, July 13 (KUNA) -- The Arabian red fox, locally known as (Al-Husni), is very common in the open desert of Kuwait, living in small groups and seeking refuge from the merciless sun via digging deep holes in the ground.
The animal -- feeding on mice, gerbils, small rabbits and birds' eggs -- is facing a bit of a struggle due to illegal hunting, which threatens its existence. (end) gq.gta
