GREAT JOB you guys!!!  The only reason Oryx are alive and well
today in Texas is because ranchers raised them and protected
them. They did this because they had economic incentives (from
hunting fees) to protect them. The Oryx paid their own way.

landowners to continue to breed and protect these species. This
is a hollow victory for Friends of Animals, and may lead to a
serious decline in the U.S. populations of these species. I know
these comments will not go over well, but they are the truth.

oryxes, dama gazelles and addax is Africa, not Texas, and
rachers are not protecting them fr
