Arabian wolf pursues an Ibex, cliff side!

This GIF/mp4 clip shows the impressive athleticism of an Arabian wolf as it pursues its equally impressive ungulate prey, possibly a Nubian Ibex, across a sheet cliff face! I personally did not know wolves were capable of hunting successfully on such steep cliff faces, similar to how snow leopards can pursue prey, for example.

My phpBB-"foo" is not good, so I could not embed the GIF into my post. But you can view the GIF here: https://thumbs.gfycat.com/SardonicAccep ... mobile.mp4

Incredible, he moves nearly cat-like! Reminded me of a snow leopard in the Himalayas. Nice found
