Houbara bustards 

The number of Houbara Bustards has been reduced in the past decades, due to poaching and illegal destruction by the human. The Abu Dhabi’s Government has put a wildlife centre in Morocco in order of increase the number of these endangered birds. The centre’s plans are to put these projects in certain places to spread Houbara birds there. Also the centre is concerned in breeding and training the birds to release them into wild, in fact not all of them were released some kept for breeding. The scientists monitor the birds even after they are released, in fact they observed that the number of the birds has been increased in the past 10 years. As a result of that, the project has been success. As the author explains “The success of the programme can be measured though their density in the wild and by observing the number of nests” (Todorova, V. 2011).
