Houbara Breeding

Production at H3 Falcon Reserve is based on in-depth genetic research and hereditary improvement studies, to increase Houbara bird production in Dubai reserves. Breeding requires strong scientific effort to preserve the genetic characteristics of this bird and enhance research into its behaviors.

Specialists and researchers supervise the mating stages, egg collection, and transfer to prepared sections suitable for their nature; for intensive care, providing the food and medicine required for formation stages and beyond.

To preserve these bird species and limit their extinction, the reserve management has provided vast areas prepared for nature, to receive mating and breeding stages, and benefit from the warmth of the climate.

The Houbara is a migratory bird that passes through the UAE and the Arabian Peninsula during migration. It is also considered a symbol of the deserts; a bird that lives across thousands of kilometers and in several countries around the world.
