FALCONRY

















Falconry is a very popular sport in Qatar. 
The sport of falconry began over 5,000 years ago in Iran, and spread over the centuries to East and West. The sport was introduced to Qatar through Bedouin tribes who used the birds as a tool for hunting. They discovered that it was much easier to allow the raptors to take down birds migrating across the Arabian Peninsula than it was to shoot them down themselves. This Bedouin method of falconry set the basis for the modern version of the sport practiced in Qatar.
There are a number of stores that sell falcons and falconry equipment. They are very expensive to purchase and maintain, so owners take great care of them.
