Arabian Oryx

July 17th, 2014

Oryx are strikingly beautiful antelope with long, straight and slender horns. These horns, carried by both males and females, give the oryx the nickname “spear antelope.” The Arabian Oryx is exceptionally well adapted to life in the desert. It can survive without water for long periods of time by drinking dew and fog water that has formed on the plants upon which it feeds.
