Although the birds are officially protected, VIP visitors from the Gulf enjoy their traditional hunts with falcons and believe the houbara’s meat has aphrodisiac properties.

so you will kill a ‘jaan’ to build your ‘jaan’?

From what I understand, the concept of it being an aphrodisiac is more folklore than anything else. Its just the thrill of hunting with falcons…the high it gives them, which causes them to take these pleasure trips. Why target the houbara bustard? Perhaps because of tradition.
