00:00Algumas de caras são como modelos, para ser honesto.
00:05A cabeça para o caro arabiano, a curva de trás.
00:08Toda parte do caro dá sua própria beleza.
00:12A maioria das especies que vive aqui são extraordinárias.
00:16Porque aqui o gulf é um ecossistema muito especial.
00:20Os animais que vivem aqui precisam ter uma adaptação fisiológica
00:24para a intensa salinidade e para a intensa temperatura.
00:30Olá, e bem-vindo a Qatar 365 com o Adil Halim.
00:34Neste episódio, nós teremos mais uma olhada para preservar sua própria vida e natureza,
00:40de falcons soaring em skype,
00:42a marinha de marinha no país.
00:45Mas primeiro, Joana Hoos visita o Qatara Internacional Arabian Horse Festival
00:51para aprender tudo sobre um animal que está roando o país deserto há mileniais.
00:56Celebrado por seu alimento, fiery temperamento e striking physical features,
01:02少os animais são cherished mais no Middle-East do que o Arabian Horses.
01:07Dating pelo menos 4,500 anos,
01:10o breed é pensado ser um dos mais altos do mundo,
01:13e é parte e parte da região riqueza, cultural e equestria heritagem.
01:18Eu vim para o Qatara Internacional Arabian Horse Festival aqui em Doha
01:22para se aproximar com esses animais.
01:24Agora, na sua 5ª edição,
01:26o festival spotlights Qatar's deep-rooted equine tradições
01:30e proporciona uma plataforma para os proprietários locais e cobrados
01:33para apresentar seus homens no internacional.
01:36É um evento flagrante no calendário de equestria,
01:39com apenas os finais dos Arabianos disponíveis para competir.
01:43O Arabian Horses é muito importante para todos os Arabes,
01:46e em Qatar específico.
01:48Nós realmente temos o orgulho de ter ou de ter esses tipos de homens.
01:54O Qatara Internacional Arabian Horse Festival
01:57é um dos maiores campeões de homens do mundo,
02:00em termos de preços.
02:02O que nós estamos tentando fazer é aumentar o número de homens do Arabianos
02:07dentro de Qatar, e começar a competir fora de Qatar.
02:10Nós precisamos realmente manter o óbvio de esse homens,
02:14e nós precisamos encorajá-lo mais por ter um especial campeões para esses homens.
02:20Judes têm o seu trabalho cut-out para eles,
02:23as a competição em diferentes categorias é forte.
02:26Com muita refinação e beleza no display,
02:29é difícil imaginar que esses homens' homens' striking physical attributes
02:32são o resultado do que o deserto deserto em que o breed evoluído.
02:37Os homens são como modelos, honestamente.
02:39Para o Arabian Horses,
02:41você percebeu que a cabeça é um pouco menor do que os outros homens.
02:46E os homens do nosso homens também são diferentes do que os homens normales,
02:52que são um pouco maior.
02:54A boca, também a curva de trás, e o ombro de trás,
03:00e o ombro de trás.
03:01Estar em uma posição, é uma modela.
03:04Quando você vê isso, é uma modela.
03:06Então, todos os homens são os homens.
03:10O Catara Internacional Arabian Horse Festival,
03:13não é só sobre ação na arena.
03:16Tem muitas equestrâneas ativadas para os homens de todos os homens,
03:20incluindo os homens,
03:22artes e educações de educação.
03:25É um festival que é muito importante a celebrar a beleza da breed hoje,
03:29como é sobre preservar a legais de esses animais,
03:32que, por milhares de anos,
03:34têm roado o antigo deserto santo da Arabian Peninsula.
03:38Agora, de preservar iniciativas no land,
03:45a efforts de documento Qatar's rich marine life.
03:47Cada ano, de April to September,
03:50just off the country's north-west coast,
03:52o Arabian Gulf é home to um incrível natural fenômeno,
03:55um dos maiores galerões de whale sharks.
03:58Eles são apenas um de muitos animais
04:00found em Qatar's territorial waters.
04:03Professor Qatar University
04:07plays a key role
04:08in documenting the country's rich marine life.
04:11What are some of the most extraordinary creatures
04:13that either pass through or live
04:15in the country's coastal waters?
04:17In my opinion,
04:18most species that live here are extraordinary,
04:21because we have here,
04:23the Gulf is a very special ecosystem.
04:26We have one of the most extreme,
04:28higher salinity and higher temperature waters in the world.
04:32So the animals that live here
04:34need to have a physiological adaptation
04:36for the intense salinity
04:37and for the intense temperature.
04:39So the coral reefs here, in my opinion,
04:41are the most extraordinary one.
04:43And they survive to temperature
04:45that most corals in the world are dying.
04:47Then we have the other animals that surround here,
04:50and including the animals that enter the Gulf
04:53to search for a better condition for reproduction,
04:56for nesting like the sea turtles.
04:59So Qatar is home to one of the largest congregations
05:02of whale sharks.
05:03What is it about the natural environment that exists here
05:06that brings these majestic creatures to Qatar?
05:09Honestly, nobody knows exactly why they are here.
05:14We know that they might have a good food resource,
05:17so they have a great amount of food available,
05:21and in certain mode they feel protected in this region.
05:26And it's interesting because they search the region here
05:31in the summer, the most extreme temperatures.
05:34But it still is not well-defined why they are here
05:38and why make this region so special.
05:42So what are some of the biggest threats Qatar faces
05:44when it comes to marine biodiversity and its ecosystem?
05:47Like we said, here is one very extraordinary environment
05:52with really high temperature.
05:53But the temperature, it's passing really above
05:58what used to be very high.
06:00So what used to reach 36, 35, now is keeping, let's say,
06:0536 for three months sometimes.
06:07So this is a great threat.
06:09Then we have also the fishing activity.
06:12Some fishing activity are really compromising the ecosystem.
06:17And the ghost nets as well.
06:19We see a lot of turtles dying in death.
06:21A lot of marine life are dying
06:23because sometimes the fishermen lost their gear.
06:26And then when we are diving, we find the gear
06:28like covering coral reef zones.
06:30Some of the species in Qatar's water
06:32are now endangered or vulnerable.
06:35What's the country doing to preserve and restore
06:38the environment for these creatures?
06:40We are beyond the moment of only preserving.
06:44We need to actively restore the ecosystem,
06:47especially the key ones that are the oyster beds
06:50and the coral reefs.
06:51Because the marine life here, all the male turtles,
06:56for instance, in the reproduction time,
06:58they are above the coral reefs.
06:59The dolphins, they are linked to the coral reefs.
07:02Like in theory, one of the main food linked
07:05to the whale sharks are linked to the coral reefs as well.
07:09So yes, if we focus in restoring oyster beds and coral reefs,
07:15is the main solution to recover the ecosystem.
07:23Along with the majestic Arabian horses we saw earlier,
07:26falcons are also highly regarded animals here in Qatar.
07:30The art of falconry has been passed down for generations,
07:33and that strong legacy continues here in Doha's historic Suk Waqif.
07:37Laila Humaira visited a hospital dedicated entirely to the preservation
07:42and care of these birds of prey.
07:44Just like a regular clinic, these patients are waiting for their turn with the doctor.
07:51Some are coming in for a routine check-up, while others need to fix a feather or two.
07:57This is the Suk Waqif Falcon Hospital, a one-of-a-kind clinic that also houses a falcon museum.
08:04We have two operation theaters, one for orthopedic and one for soft tissue surgery.
08:10From diagnosis to treatment to supportive surface, like the microchip or ID or passport or anything else.
08:18In the hospital, we have a software, a unique medical system,
08:22which will be storage all data of that falcon science from 2008 until now.
08:28Falconry is a tradition many Qataris like Mizned Al-Muhannadi was born into.
08:33Once used by past generations to hunt for food,
08:36the falcon has become an expensive symbol of status and an enduring cultural heritage.
08:42I was like six to seven years old.
08:45First, they teach you to give respect to that bird.
08:52And it has to be a bond with you and the falcon.
08:56Building trust with a wild animal is a long and time-consuming process.
09:00And a big part of that is learning how to care for the falcon.
09:04In addition to providing medical care and surgery for the falcons,
09:08the hospital also has labs capable of gene sequencing, clinical tests and vaccinations
09:13to make sure that the highly revered birds are in the best of health when they're so high in the sky.
09:20Majestic, agile and intelligent, the falcon is a natural predator.
09:25While hunting is in its DNA, the secret of the falcon's skills is in its anatomy.
09:31The falcon is a unique bird. It's a very strong bird.
09:34For the nostril, he has a small bone in the centre, which will give him the opportunity to the air when he's stopping.
09:43The air coming like a cylinder, become hot and relax with a slow pillow to the lung.
09:49He has nine air sacs, which will be like a bank of oxygen when he wants more oxygen.
09:54A hunter is only as good as his tools, so it's no wonder the falcons also get their beaks and talons maintained at the hospital.
10:02Depending on what breed the falcons are, the most common being peregrine, sucker and gear,
10:08the birds of prey are known to fetch up to millions of dollars in the market.
10:13So the most common would be like 5,000 riyals, it's gonna be like a hundred, no, it's gonna be a thousand dollars,
10:21until a million dollars.
10:23That is a lot, you know, expensive falcons that's really, really, really expensive.
10:28It's like, you know, it's like buying a house.
10:31The Sukwake Falcon Hospital also took part in a pioneering genome project aimed at sequencing different breeds
10:39to develop new ways of identifying falcons and overcoming potential diseases.
10:44We can now, by the genome, by genes test, we can know that falcon which will be pure, sucker or peregrine or gear,
10:53or maybe hybrid, and at the same time that they open to you the door for a lot of benefits,
10:59like, you know, what is the gene in the gear falcon can give you suspected to more of that disease than the peregrine falcon in this disease.
11:09In March, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, or CITES,
11:16opened an office at the hospital which will facilitate the international transit and movement of falcons,
11:22boosting the country's contributions to the protection of animals
11:26and further putting falconry in Qatar on the wings of honour, prestige and tradition.
11:33From majestic Arabian horses roaming on land to marine life swimming underwater and falcons soaring in the skies above,
11:43we hope you enjoyed this look at Qatar's wildlife preservation efforts.
11:47But that's all the time we have for now.
