Under the patronage of Governor of Madinah Region Prince Salman bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz, Saudi Arabia’s National Center for Wildlife, in collaboration with the National Center for Vegetation Cover Development and Combating Desertification, released 22 endangered wildlife species in Al-Bayda Wildlife Park in Madinah.
The initiative is part of ongoing national efforts to reintroduce native species into their natural habitats, enrich biodiversity, and promote ecological balance in protected areas.
The released species include six mountain ibex, four Arabian antelopes, four griffon vultures, six kestrels, and two collared doves. The animals were equipped with collars and satellite tracking devices to ensure effective monitoring, allowing experts to follow their movements, assess adaptation rates, and gather data to support breeding and sustainability programs.
The initiative reflects the Kingdom's broader commitment to wildlife conservation and environmental restoration, which aligns with national strategies to protect endangered species and combat desertification.
