Todorova, V.
Persecution of caracals in the UAE
2009  Wildlife Middle East (4): 9-9

Despite being protected under federal law, the Arabian caracal (_Caracal caracal schmitzi_) continues to be persecuted in the UAE. Reports of dead animals put on display are frequent. But the sighting of nine animal corpses in a remote area of the Hajar Mountains is unusual considering the large number of animals involve. The incident calls for better enforcement of the existing laws.
