Arabian Sand cat "one plan" conservation workshop hosted by Al Ain Zoo
2014  Wildlife Middle East (7): 9-9

The sand cat is currently listed as Near Threatened across Arabia but Endangered in the UAE and Abu Dhabi. Despite these classifications there is very little known about the sand cat across its range. Little information exists about its distribution, population size, population trend, biology and ecology. There are as few as 4 confirmed records of the sand cat in the UAE. Because of these factors Al Ain Zoo has made the sand cat a focus species in its conservation and research efforts.
