Residents of a remote village in Judea and Samaria claim that Israel has an army of spy cows and that he encountered one of them spying on him and his friends. Around the neck of each cow is hung a medallion with a listening and recording device and sometimes cameras, to follow every detail in Khirbet Yanon.
In July 2008, the same Palestinian news outlet reported that settlers were releasing a strain of poison-resistant super rats in the Old City of Jerusalem. In 2011 it was reported that an eagle was suspected by Saudi Arabia of being a Mossad spy.
