Abstract
Most of the wild ungulates which inhabited the Syrian territories (Syrian Arab Republic) has been exterminated in historical times. At present, the Wild Boar, Sus scrofa, the Roe Deer, Capreolus capreolus, and two or possibly three species of gazelle, Gazella subgutturosa, G. dorcas, and G. gazella, are the only survivors from a rich fauna of ungulates that ranged widely until recent times. The Arabian Oryx, Oryx leucoryx, and the Nubian Ibex, Capra ibex nubiana, do not appear to exist any longer. The latter species was probably exterminated during the second half of the 20th century.
