The Arabian Gazelle, Gazella arabica, was once widely distributed in Oman, but its population decreased through illegal hunting and capture of the species. It is now found in small, isolated populations in the country, but little is known about the size and dynamics of these populations. In November 2014 we conducted a survey to estimate the density and size of two populations in the Dhofar region, one in the foot-hills of Jabal Samhan and the other in the Nejd. Population densities were found to be 0.33 animals/km2at Jabal Samhan and 0.28 animals/km2in Nejd. The total population size for the two areas combined was extrapolated to be 1,737 animals. |
