Traditional Bird-Trapping Methods Highlighted in Northern Borders Region

Arar, October 10, 2026, SPA -- With the launch of the hunting season regulated by the National Center for Wildlife, falconers and bird trackers across Northern Borders Region are actively tracking seasonal migratory species using time-honored trapping techniques.
Among the prominent traditional methods is a specialized handcrafted metal trap engineered to blend seamlessly into open desert terrain. The device is deployed primarily during peak midday hours, when rising desert temperatures drive migratory birds to seek rest beneath sparse desert shrubs and shaded ground.
Successful trapping relies heavily on environmental expertise developed over generations, requiring hunters to accurately read seasonal flight paths, monitor desert weather patterns, and anticipate resting locations.
The technique remains an established desert practice in Northern Borders Region, operating alongside various seasonal catching methods adapted to specific species, terrain, and times of day.
