Rock Hyrax, or conies, live in rock crannies or in thickets. They live in groups and are remarkable climbers. The Hyrax feed on plants, some of which are poisonous.
Despite the fact that they are mammals, their body temperatures is not constant, changing according to the ambient temperature.
Therefore, on cold mornings, it is possible to see them sunbathing on top of rocks before resuming activity. The females give birth in the spring, after a seven and a half month-long pregnancy.
