One-and-a-half-year-old Or Barness from Rishon Lezion, who was attacked by a leopard last week at a zoo on Ko Samui Island in Thailand, landed before dawn on Sunday morning in Israel with his family.
Upon landing, he was transported to the Sheba Tel Hashomer Hospital, where he will remain under surveillance. His father Rafi said, over the weekend, "The boy is still foggy, with severe injuries. The bite that he got in the face and around the eye hit him in the bone. He can't eat because he was hit in the jaw too."
