Arabian Oryx Overview


The Arabian oryx is a desert-dwelling antelope recognized by its white coat, dark facial markings, and long, slender horns. Its light coloration reflects sunlight, helping it stay cool in extreme heat. Once extinct in the wild, it was successfully reintroduced and is now a symbol of conservation success in the Middle East.
