Dispute Turns Israeli Couple’s Home Into a Zoo
- Share via
JERUSALEM — Wild horses could not drag a woman from her home--and neither could the goats, sheep, monkeys or a violent parrot her husband allegedly used to try to drive her out, Israel’s Itim news agency reported Friday.
She has gone to court seeking an order to have the animals removed, the report said.
The woman, who was not identified, told Tel Aviv District Court that her husband brought 10 wild horses and 25 other animals to the family’s agricultural settlement several months ago to punish her for complaining about his lover, Itim said.
Things got worse, Itim quoted the woman as saying, when he brought a disturbed monkey and screeching, biting parrot into the house, allegedly endangering their infant daughter.
