Summary

The Arabian Oryx has to be one of conservations greatest success stories to date! With just a few handful left under human care in the 1970s, today there are over 7000 Arabian Oryx in the world. That includes nearly 1200 animals back in the wild after being declared 'Extinct in the Wild' in 1972. What makes this species so special as well is their ability to survive in such a harsh environment in the Arabian peninsula and Southwest Asia.
