🐃Arabian oryx
아라비아오릭스(Arabian oryx)는 뚜렷한 어깨 혹, 길고 곧은 뿔, 털이 있는 꼬리를 가진 중간 크기의 영양이다. 이 영양은 소과이며 아라비아반도의 사막과 초원 지역이 원산지인 오릭스 속에서 가장 작은 종이다. 아라비아오릭스는 1970년대 초에 야생에서 멸종되었지만 동물원과 개인 보호구역에서 보호되었다가 1980년부터 야생에 다시 도입되었다. 1986년, 아라비아오릭스는 IUCN 적색 목록에서 멸종위기종으로 분류되었고, 2011년에는 야생에서 멸종된 후 취약한 상태로 돌아간 최초의 동물로 기록되었다. 이 동물은 CITES 부속서 I에 등재되어 있다. 2016년에는 야생 개체 수가 1,220마리로 추정되었으며, 그 중 850마리는 성숙한 개체였고, 전 세계적으로 6,000~7,000마리는 포획된 것으로 추정되었다.
