multiple issues expert April 2009 sections April 2009 orphan August 2010 Known as Wadi Wurayah is a 169 km sup 2 sup area between the towns of Masafi , Khor Fakkan and Bidiyah in the United Arab Emirates . It is home to more than 100 species of mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians as well as more than 300 species of plants. Famous for its scenic waterfall set amid the Hajar Mountains , Wadi Wurayah is recommended as a must see in UAE off road and tourist guides. It is a spectacular location with streams and pools dotted around the rocky outcrops. It is one of few remaining places in the world where the endangered Arabian tahr still roams free. Conservationists believe it to be among the last places in the UAE where the Arabian leopard , which has not been seen in the UAE since 1995, still survives. The same is true for the caracal lynx, a small, shy predator, which like the leopard is persecuted by farmers who believe it targets chickens and goats. The wadi is also home to a type of freshwater fish , the Garra barreimiae , which lives only in the Hajar Mountains . Among the more than 300 species of plants is a species of wild orchid unique to the UAE, the Epipactis veratrifolia . In the UAE, what constitutes a protected area is vague. There is no set of unified country standards. Few protected areas have management plans, while in many places it is difficult to enforce laws protecting rare animals. The Wadi Wurayah protected area will be set up so it meets international standards established by World Wide Fund for Nature as well as by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation . ref http ... environment wadi wurayah HSBC Partenrship with EWS WWF to aid the conservation of Wadi Wurayah ...
