A scientific study conducted by the King Salman Royal Reserve reveals the successful breeding of griffon vultures, illustrating Saudi Arabia's commitment to wildlife conservation. The reserve's development authority published the findings in the international journal Open Journal of Animal Sciences, showcasing the institution's leadership in environmental protection and biodiversity preservation.

This achievement underscores the strategic role of the reserve as a safe habitat for birds of prey, highlighting the effectiveness of the Authority's monitoring and protection programs. The study documented 57 nesting sites and a 74.5% occupancy rate during the 2024-2025 period, with 82 active nests identified. Additionally, supplementary feeding stations established by the reserve have attracted three endangered vulture species—cinereous, lappet-faced, and Egyptian vultures—further emphasizing the reserve's global importance in wildlife conservation.
