Summary

Description While the Gemsbok tuck in, the true animals of the desert, the Arabin Oryx, surprisingly prefer to take shelter under a tree. The Arabian oryx (Oryx leucoryx) or white oryx is a medium-sized antelope with a distinct shoulder bump, long, straight horns, and a tufted tail. It is a bovid, and the smallest member of Oryx genus, native to desert and steppe areas of the Arabian Peninsula. The Arabian oryx was extinct in the wild by the early 1970s, but was saved in zoos and private preserves and reintroduced into the wild starting in 1980. The animal in the foreground is a Thomson's Gazelle, which was just going past. (Al Ain, UAE, Dec. 2012)
