A 14-year-old Saudi boy tending to his sheep in a valley in the Gulf Kingdom was attacked by a hungry wolf but it managed to overcome the predator by hitting it on the head with a rock. The boy suffered injuries but the wolf was captured alive.

The boy was with his sheep away from his father’s farm in the rugged western town of Khaibar when the wolf jumped on him from the back.

“The wolf started biting the boy from the back but the boy did not surrender and fought back,” Sharq newspaper said.

“He then picked a large rock and hit the wolf on the head, causing it to fall unconscious…the boy’s father rushed to the scene after hearing his son’s screams and caught the wolf alive.”
