Saudis catch spy in the sky

Strange story today from the Middle East. The Israeli news agency Haaretz reports that Saudi Arabian authorities have arrested a vulture, which they claim was trained to be a spy for Mossad, the notorious Israeli equivalent of the CIA.

The vulture had been tagged at Tel Aviv University for a science study. For some reason it flew into Saudi territory, where it was nabbed. Agent 17 wonders what will become of the alleged spy (pictured). Perhaps it will be stoned to death according to Sharia law?

Footnote: Speaking of flying predators and the war against terrorism, does anyone out there remember "Blackhawk" comics? Where is Blackhawk and his gang of birdmen now that the west really needs them?!
