Annoyed falcon attacks Saudi owner

A falcon attacked his Saudi owner after it was maddened by his repeated attempts to torment the bird by preventing it from having its prey.

The owner, using a rope, kept waving the tied prey away from the hungry falcon before the bird swooped and perched on the man’s back.

A YouTube film published by the Kuwaiti Arabic language daily 'Al Anba' showed the falcon then started to bite the man, who went into a laughing fit before he fell

on his face on the desert sand and gave up the hidden meal to the falcon.
