Threatened species of Falcon
Incidence 
It is estimated that 1500 Saker falcons [Falco cherrug] were collected annually for export from Kazakhstan between 1992 and 1994. In early September 1995, TRAFFIC researchers noted approximately 300 birds from Central Asia available in Arabian markets. Investigators were repeatedly informed of illegal export trade in Saker falcons with the United Arab Emirates. Sheikhs offered donations to Kazakhstan to obtain permission to collect falcons.
