| Towards the west end of the zoo were a number of large paddocks, home to zebras, deer, horned oryx and Przewalski wild horses. |
| The Turkana helped identify the best cabin spots for viewing sunrises over the water and for spotting the occasional oryx or gazelle. |
| The once nearly extinct white oryx, an antelope, has been successfully reintroduced into the wild in Oman. |
| They watched out for lions, cheetahs and a particular favourite, the oryx, the African antelope with its wonderful horns. |
| Zoos from around the world will contribute either female oryxes or oryx sperm to create the widest-possible genetic mix. |
| Visitors to Fota can also see a two-week-old zebra foal on the grassland this summer, as well as a week-old oryx antelope calf. |
