Weighing 1,000 grams and measuring 16.5 inches in both length and width, the Qarmousha Pure Ultra White attracted considerable attention from leading falconers and bidders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-AE\">Humaid Matar Al Dhaheri, Group CEO of ADNEC Group, said: \u201cThe exceptional calibre of the falcons participating in these auctions reflects the global standing they have achieved through the Abu Dhabi International Hunting and Equestrian Exhibition. We remain committed to providing a platform that brings together the finest falcons and bloodlines from around the world. These auctions also play an important role in preserving breed quality and sustainability while reinforcing Abu Dhabi\u2019s position as a leading international destination for falconry and its authentic traditions, supporting efforts to safeguard this treasured Emirati heritage for future generations.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-AE\">This year\u2019s edition features 55 leading local and international falcon breeding and care farms, representing a 20% increase compared with last year.
