Saudi Falcons Club Advances Falcon Conservation in Kazakhstan

 The Saudi Falcons Club has released a number of Saker falcons in the Republic of Kazakhstan as part of the international track of the Hadad Program. The initiative is implemented through coordinated scientific efforts aimed at relocating the birds to their natural habitat and improving their stability and breeding success in the wild.
 The release was carried out in Altyn-Emel National Park, based on environmental and scientific criteria, including habitat suitability, the availability of open spaces, prey abundance, and the park’s role as a natural setting for the species during the breeding season.
 The Hadad Program aims to strengthen falcon sustainability and promote wild breeding. It includes a domestic track for releasing Barbary and Lanner falcons in the Kingdom and an international track for releasing Saker and Peregrine falcons in their natural habitats abroad.
 By releasing falcons in Kazakhstan, one of the Saker’s original habitats, the initiative reflects the Kingdom’s efforts to conserve falcons and support endangered species.
