2 2 OVERVIEW OF STATUS and POPULATION TRENDS Table 1 The status of the Saker Falcon in your country Breeding Migration Wintering Extinct as breeder Not breeding Yes Yes (few individuals were observed No (non breeding) in winter) Table 1 Known breeding pairs (observed) Population size and trend in your country Please refer to the Notes (below) to aid completion of this Table. Year of the latest survey Estimated breeding population size Data Quality Year of the latest estimate Breeding population trend in the last 20 years (or 3 generations) Data Quality Estimated minimum number of passage and wintering Sakers According to the number of falcons trapped during migration between Data Quality Year of the latest estimate References GE 2013 Ebin Khathlan Pers. Comm. 2
3 Notes: Estimated breeding population size: Specify if pairs or individuals (the same unit will be used for all breeding range countries). Data quality: o Good Observed (GO)=Reliable or representative quantitative data are available through complete counts or comprehensive measurements for the whole period and country. o Good Estimated (GE) = Reliable quantitative or representative data are available through sampling or interpolation for the whole period and country. o Medium Estimated (ME) = Only incomplete quantitative data are available through sampling or interpolation. o Medium Inferred (MI) = Only poor or incomplete quantitative data are available derived from indirect evidence. o Poor (P) = Poorly known with no quantitative data are available and with guesses derived from circumstantial evidence. o Unknown (U) = information on quality not available. Breeding Population trend in the last 20 years (or three generations 6.4x3=19.2 years,birdlife International, 2013). If possible, calculate the actual trend in %or use the following categories: o Large decline (>=30%), Moderate decline (10-29%), Small decline (0-9%), o Stable (<10% decline and <10% increase), o Small increase (0-9%), Moderate increase (10-29%), Large increase (>=30%), o Unknown (insufficient data). Estimated minimum number of passage and wintering Sakers: numbers in individuals. References: Describe the data sources as (First Author) (et al.), (year) Table 2 Habitat use and diet of the Saker Falcon in your country Habitat use (According to the areas were the falcons trapped) Open sandy and sandy gravel with scattered vegetation and trees Not observed Diet Table 4 Current conservation and management actions for the Saker Falcon in your country Title of Project/Action 1: Objective Action Coverage Period Organisations Responsible Example: Population decline halted. 1.

5 2 - THREATS General overview of threats What are the most important threats to the Saker Falcon in your country? According to the number of saker falcons trapped during migration, the number is fluctuating (see the table below) with the same trapping effort is suggest that the threats it may be at the breeding ground. However, if the species is declining which bring its global status to Endangered trapping could be a threats in the future. What is their impact on the population? Possibly the population will be affected in the future. List of critical and important threats Please follow a descending priority order of threats, starting with the most important. A full account of the Threats should also be included in Table 5 of Annex I. Example: 1. Name of threat: (e.g. Destruction of breeding habitats by tree cutting) Brief description: Importance: (critical, high, medium, low, local, unknown) 2. Name of threat: Brief description: Importance: (critical, high, medium, low, local, unknown) Trapping Prey declining Habitat destruction (over grazing and wood cutting) 5
6 3 - POLICIES AND LEGISLATION RELEVANT FOR MANAGEMENT National policies, legislation and ongoing activities relevant to Saker Falcon Please list key national nature conservation and related legislation. The royal decree approved signing the agreement in 1996, with the Saudi Wildlife Authority to be the national authority for implementing the CITES agreement in Saudi Arabia. In the same year the kingdom became a member of the agreement Royal decree no. (M/9) for the low of trade in wild animals and their products in Royal approval no. (149/49) in 2004 to produce by law, which have the definition, responsibility, permits, requirement for captive animals and steps for implementing the low. Amendment by low (no. 173/73) in

Habitat Loss/Degradation (human induced) 2.1. Overgrazing... Local 2.2. Wood cutting... Local 2. High mortality/loss 2.1. Decline in the prey items... High Missing or ineffective policies, laws and enforcement 3.1. Trapping management Low 3.2. Local trade Medium 3.3. Illegal entrance of smuggled falcon High 3.4. Hunting outside the protected areas (effecting the prey item)... High 3.5. Lack of governs to develop and enforce the law Medium 4. Low public and stakeholder awareness 4.1. Lack of awareness among falconers... High 4.2. Lack of management plan for the falconry... High Notes: The description of Threats should reflect the actual understanding of the situation regarding the species, according to the latest available knowledge. Threats are not hierarchical, but clustered according to type of effect. Threat score: o Critical: a factor causing or likely to cause very rapid declines (>30% over 10 years); o High: a factor causing or likely to cause rapid declines (20-30% over 10 years); o Medium: a factor causing or likely to cause relatively slow, but significant, declines (10-20% over 10 years); o Low: a factor causing or likely to cause fluctuations; o Local: a factor causing or likely to cause negligible declines; o Unknown: a factor that is likely to affect the species but it is unknown to what extent. This ranking reflects IUCN extinction risk assessments
