Arab Weather - The National Center for Wildlife Development announced the observation of Bryde's whales in the Jubail Marine Reserve, in a rare event that is considered an important scientific achievement that reflects the unique biological diversity in the Kingdom's territorial waters.

Bryde’s whales are large, migratory species that are often spotted in the open ocean, making their appearance in Saudi waters an exceptional event. The Jubail Marine Reserve is one of the protected areas where programs are being implemented to protect local biodiversity, with a focus on documenting endangered species.

This discovery comes as part of the Kingdom’s ongoing efforts to enhance environmental sustainability and protect marine life, which contributes to supporting national initiatives to preserve and develop natural resources.
