Page iv The rare Arabian Oryx is believed to have inspired the myth of the unicorn. This desert antelope became virtually extinct in the early 1960s. At that time, several groups of international conservationists arranged to have nine animals sent to the Phoenix Zoo to be the nucleus of a captive breeding herd. Today, the Oryx population is over 1,000, and over 500 have been returned to the Middle East. 1999 by The Oryx Press 4041 North Central at Indian School Road Phoenix, Arizona 85012-3397 All rights reserved.
