NCW Showcases Baboon Population Management at 30th IPS Congress
The National Center for Wildlife (NCW) represented Saudi Arabia at the 30th International Primatological Society (IPS) Congress, held from July 20 to 25 in Antananarivo, Madagascar. During the congress, the NCW presented two peer-reviewed scientific papers recently published in the International Journal of Primatology , highlighting the environmental and social challenges posed by the growing baboon population in the Kingdom.
Drawing on findings from leading primatology journals, the NCW shared Saudi Arabia's distinctive, science-based approach to mitigating the impacts of baboon overpopulation. The presentation emphasized the integration of academic research and practical field strategies in addressing these challenges.
As one of the most prominent global gatherings in the field, the IPS Congress brings together researchers and experts dedicated to the study of primates. Saudi Arabia's active participation reflects its commitment to advancing environmental science and promoting innovative national practices. These efforts are in line with the goals of Vision 2030, particularly in the areas of sustainability and biodiversity conservation.
