Abu Dhabi Falcon Hunting Starts October 20
The Environment Agency – Abu Dhabi has announced the start of the 2026–2027 falconry season, which begins on October 20, 2026, and continues until January 31, 2027. This initiative is part of their efforts to preserve the cultural heritage of falconry in the UAE while ensuring the protection of wildlife. The hunting activity is restricted to licensed falconers and involves only captive-bred houbara bustards, with strict adherence to legal and environmental regulations, such as avoiding restricted areas and carrying the necessary permits during hunting. Permits can be issued electronically for a fee of 127 AED, and falconers must carry them during practice, ensuring environmental conservation and avoiding disturbance or harm to animals or the natural site.
