Sightseeing in Doha
Falcon Hospital in Souq Waqif, Doha.
In Qatar, the state sponsors a full-fledged hospital for falcons – more than 40 thousand birds pass through it every year. They do everything there – from treating fractures (often caused by a falcon crashing into something at high speed) to prosthetics for broken feathers (necessary to maintain aerodynamic properties) and cosmetic procedures such as sharpening beaks and claws.
