First spotted hyena birth announced
The efforts of the National Center for Wildlife Development, in collaboration with NEOM, have successfully resulted in the first planned birth of a hyena following its reintroduction into the NEOM Natural Reserve. This demonstrates that the hyena has adapted to the environment and is capable of reproducing in the wild. The process involved rehabilitating a pair of hyenas at the rescue center, monitoring them during their transition to the natural habitat, where they were released under veterinary supervision and tracking technologies were used to ensure ongoing observation. In August 2026, the female hyena was seen with her young for the first time, displaying natural maternal behavior, while the team closely monitors their condition. This birth is significant within the context of predator reintroduction programs and efforts to support their recovery in ecosystems. It also affirms that the strategy of breeding, rehabilitation, and continuous monitoring is successful in ensuring the stability and reproduction of hyenas in their native habitats.
