Associated Press
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia —
A Bedouin shepherdess stabbed to death a wolf that attacked her, the newspaper Okaz reported Thursday.
Okaz said the wolf surprised Umm Rajnan as she was tending her flock near a desert village about 125 miles from the city of Medina.
As the wolf began attacking her sheep, Umm Rajnan slipped into her tent and grabbed a large knife, the newspaper said. When the wolf jumped at her, she stabbed it repeatedly until it fell dead at her feet, Okaz said.
