Arabian oryx

The white oryx is a desert-dwelling antelope with striking straight horns and a tufted tail. Once wiped out in the wild, it was brought back through breeding programs and now roams parts of the Arabian Peninsula again. It's the smallest of the oryx species, built to thrive in harsh, dry landscapes.

• Its long, spear-like horns can grow up to 75 cm (30 inches) long.
• This antelope was completely extinct in the wild by the 1970s before being reintroduced.
• They have a noticeable hump at the shoulders, giving them a distinctive silhouette.
