SAUDI ARABIA - JANUARY 18: Falconery in Sakakah, Saudi Arabia on January 18, 2010 - The falconry is known in Arabia for thousands of years. One species (shaheen) of falcons is on display together with the bustard, the most wanted quarry. Natural hunting is represented by, an eagle capturing a rabbit. Different species of falcons with different capabilities for hunting are traded in the region these days. The falconer with his falcon is illustrated in one of the cases, together with some accessories. The most important of these are the roost, the wrist glove and the mask. Animal traps for catching foxes and rabbits are displayed next to the falconer. (Photo by Eric LAFFORGUE/Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images)
