Saudi Arabia's rarest animal born after a century
Fertility protection efforts successfully recorded the birth of the first foal of the Asian wild donkey in Saudi Arabia in over 100 years. The foal was born within the Prince Mohammed bin Salman Royal Reserve, as part of a program aimed at reintroducing endangered species. The male foal was born in June 2025 and survived the critical first months, amidst predictions that wild donkey populations could decline by up to 90% by 2050, with fewer than 600 individuals remaining worldwide. This birth follows efforts to transport the donkey from Jordan to Saudi Arabia and the launch of a program designed to establish stable populations to enhance genetic diversity and ensure the species' sustainability.
