EVINGER Directory of U.S. Military Bases Worldwide Third Edition Directory of U.S. Military Bases Worldwide Third Edition Edited by William R. Evinger swe, SNe Cole sy Oryx Press 1998 The rare Arabian Oryx is believed to have inspired the myth of the unicorn. This desert antelope became virtually extinct in the early 1960s. At that time several groups of international conservationists arranged to have 9 animals sent to the Phoenix Zoo to be the nucleus of a captive breeding herd. Today the Oryx population is over 800, and nearly 400 have been returned to reserves in the Middle East. © 1998 by the Oryx Press 4041 North Central at Indian School Road Phoenix, Arizona 85012-3397 All rightisn raPenshyeo rtfvooecdro.m p yNoiron gb,pya rartn eyco ofr mdtehiainnsg s,p, u boerll iebccaytt riaoonn ni ic nmfaooryr mmebacet ihoranen pircSoatdloru,ac geiedn calonurd d tirnagn smitted retrieval system, without permission in writing from The Oryx Press, AmerTihcea np apNeartf ioourn saePldr inSitnte adtn hdiLas irbpdru abfrloyir c aMItanitfoeonrr imamaletsei,to sn A NtShSce] i meZin3nc9ie.m—4P8u,em r m1r9ae8nq4eu.in rceem enotfs Paopfe r EDviirnegcetro.r y of— {U 3.rSd.
