North Africa Houbara Bustard's numbers have been decreasing rapidly the last few decades; poaching, over-hunting and destruction of their natural habitats were the main causes for that. Emirates center for wild life has been preventing extinction for those species. Every stage of the bird's lives is carefully managed in the center of Morocco; birds used for breeding are trained to be familiar with humans. The Enjil station processes samples to match females and males; a process done to ensure the genetic composition for the future. No birds are released during hunting season. The program has been working due to the increasing numbers of these birds.
