Houbara bustards

Main idea: Ways to maintain bustard from extinction.

Houbara are a kind of desert bird and some countries try to keep them from extinction. In 1995 the UAE produced a Center for birds in Morocco for the survival of the birds. There are a lot of goals for this center for example: increase the number of birds and train the birds to not be afraid of humans who are specialists to make the breeding process easy. And specialists watch bustards in the breeding season to examine a sample of sperm. "The success of the programme can be measured though their density in the wild and b observing the number of nests – and so far these numbers are up"(Todorova, V. 2011).
