Al-Manashi technique
Al-Manashbi is a traditional falcon hunting technique used in the Arabian Peninsula. The method involves an iron wire net set up in the shade of large trees. After a falcon eats its prey, it seeks shade, where it then falls into the trap. Before falconry evolved into a sport, inhabitants of the Arabian desert were known to have trapped falcons since ancient times for use in hunting other animals for food.
