Canadian John Lejeune Falcon Farm is taking part for the first time in the International Falcon Breeders Auction, held by the Saudi Falcons Club from August 5 to 24 at its headquarters in Malham, north of Riyadh. Owner of the farm John Lejeune Jr. said that the auction's global reputation was a major incentive for him to enter 38 of his most distinguished falcons in the event. He stressed that the support received from the Saudi Falcons Club played a crucial role in his decision to participate with a significant number of falcons. The club, he said, provided comprehensive guidance on the transportation of falcons from Canada to the Kingdom, as well as detailed care instructions to ensure the safe arrival of the falcons at the auction. Omar Al-Raqabi, the farm's sales agent, said that the farm focuses not only on breeding, but also on conserving sought-after falcon genes. The prices of the farm's falcons vary depending on their weight and size, he added. The event brings together falconers and falcon b reeders; it is a platform where they can exchange knowledge and share experience, and underscores the Saudi Falcons Club's commitment to preserving the falconry heritage and supporting falcon breeding farms. The club also endeavors to solidify Saudi Arabia's status as a global destination for falconers. Source: Saudi Press Agency
