Inside Abu Dhabi’s World’s Largest Falcon Hospital: A Sanctuary for 11,000 Falcons 🦅

In the heart of the United Arab Emirates, falcons hold a place of honor, cherished as beloved family members. When a falcon falls ill or sustains an injury, it's treated with the utmost care and urgency. 🏥✨

Established by the Environment Agency in 1999, the Abu Dhabi Falcon Hospital (ADFH) is the UAE's first public medical institution exclusively dedicated to falcons. Over the years, it has grown to become the largest falcon hospital not just in the UAE, but also in the world, caring for approximately 11,000 falcons each year.

ADFH's mission is clear: \"to protect, conserve, research, and promote captive-bred and wild falcons' health, wildlife, and falconry tradition\". The dedicated staff are passionate about leading the Abu Dhabi government's efforts to enhance and safeguard animal welfare. They also strive to raise awareness and foster a sense of responsibility among the public for the well-being of these magnificent birds.

Join our reporter, You Yang, as we explore this unique sanctuary and uncover the incredible work being done to preserve the rich tradition of falconry in the modern world. 🦅🌍💬
