Saudi Arabia’s embassy in the US participated in the 2nd edition of the global initiative “Cat Walk.” The event is organized by the Catmosphere organization, which is concerned with supporting initiatives to conserve endangered wild cats.
This took place in the presence the Saudi ambassador to the US, Princess Reema bint Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz.
A number of the embassy staff walked a distance of 7 kilometers to raise awareness and encourage the conservation of wild cats, especially the Arabian leopard, which the Kingdom made great efforts to protect from extinction and return it to its natural environment, as part of the programs of the Royal Commission for AlUla (RCU).
In a press statement to the Saudi Press Agency (SPA), the official spokesperson for the Saudi embassy in Washington, Fahd Nazer, confirmed that the embassy's participation in the initiative comes with the support, encouragement and directives of Princess Reema to support the protection of 40 species of endangered wild cats.
