wrong!

Hi Kijangnim, before you start to build a statue of your beloved "chief" in your garden, get the facts right:

"The Phoenix Zoo and the Fauna and Flora Preservation Society of London (now Fauna & Flora International), with financial help from the World Wildlife Fund, are credited with saving the Arabian Oryx from extinction. In 1962, these groups started the first captive-breeding herd in any zoo, at the Phoenix Zoo, sometimes referred to as "Operation Oryx."
Because all wild Arabian Oryx were killed for meat or just for fun by 1972,
all present animals are from this herd.

Now keep on licking....
