RIYADH: The National Center for Wildlife — in partnership with the National Center for Vegetation Cover Development and Combating Desertification — has released 10 endangered Arabian sand gazelles into Thadiq National Park as part of its ongoing commitment to environmental sustainability.
The initiative is part of a comprehensive national strategy to reintroduce endangered native species to help restore ecological balance in natural habitats.
This initiative aims to enhance biodiversity within the park, boost its tourist appeal, and support the center’s environmental sustainability efforts.
National parks serve as vital ecological corridors, linking protected areas and enabling wildlife to move freely within their natural habitats.
Mohammed Qurban, the CEO of the National Center for Wildlife, said that reintroducing species was a key step toward strengthening environmental sustainability, maintaining ecosystem resilience, and enriching biodiversity.
