Fauna and flora of the Sinai.
Let’s just say the Bedouin are not big on pets. There are some cats and dogs hanging around the settlements we passed through, but they were of the semi-feral variety it seemed to me. When food was served they would appear out of nowhere with the expectation of picking up some scraps. The reception they received from the Bedouin would not live up to BJ standards. The hikers received repeated “talking to’s” when they fed the animals while eating.
We had two dogs following us for days and one of the guides knew them as they had followed some of his groups before. This was in the mountains around St. Katherine where we climbed and descended steeply using ropes. The dogs always found a different way around these hairy spots that would not have been passable for the animals. And then, just as suddenly as they had appeared they disappeared again.
Some camels in the oasis Ein Kidd. I see no markings on their hides and think therefore that they are wild or feral.
