  1. Many desert animals, from tortoises to addax and Arabian oryx, have abandoned the need to drink, except perhaps when pregnant.
  2. Arabian oryx also lick the dew that may accumulate on rocks and on each others' hair, as the humid air from the Arabian Sea rolls in at night.
  3. Prior to the Second World War this species was hunted, as part of a traditional subsistence economy, by Bedouin tribes but with the development of the oil industry and the introduction of modern vehicles and weapons, hunting parties organised on a large scale rapidly reduced oryx populations to such an extent that they were virtually eliminated.
  4. However, in relation to recreational hunting, a classic example of overexploitation is that of the Arabian oryx ( Oryx leucoryx ) in the Middle East.
  5. Domestic animals have over-grazed the area creating total desert conditions which are unsuitable for oryx.
  6. Scimitar-horned Oryx bred in British Zoos were reintroduced to Tunisia in 1987.
  7. In a study of 102 scimitar-horned oryx juvenile survival rates were shown to be inversely related to the degree of inbreeding.
  8. Some prey species such as the oryx (opposite, top), rely on simple, powerful galloping to escape their pursuers, but others, such as the impala (below), employ a more confusing, zigzag escape route, with sudden directional changes making it difficult for the pursuing attacker to strike.
  9. Moreover it is important to identify genetically suitable animals for reintroduction from zoos, where analysis can reveal which animals carry the under-represented founder oryx's genes and would therefore be good candidates.
  10. Scimitar-horned Oryx
  11. Oryx and ibex are scarce, but they are there.
  12. Oryx make better use of the available plant food than domestic animals, and if given adequate protection in the wild could become a valuable source of food for local people.
