Endangered species are commonly endangered because humans destroy their homes (to expand cities, for the Natural Resources there, etc.); because humans hunt, trap, kill, shoot, poisoned, ecettera, animals; and so on and so forth.

Arabian wolves are endangered for the following reaons:

The climate of the desert force animals, and humans, to live near permanant sources of water, which means they have an equal chance of hunting and killing livestock than they do of killing natural prey.

Rabies epidemic in that part of the world has wiped out many Arabian wolves.

Interbreeding with feral dogs, which means that more and more 'Arabian wolves' are actually a mix of wolf and wild dog, which means pure-blooded Arabian wolves will continually be rarer to find. An example: pure-blooded Arabian wolves have yellow-gold eyes, like most wolves, but many Arabian wolves are discovered with brown eyes, a sign of interbreeding with wild dogs.

Unlike most wolf breeds, Arabian wolves don't have such a wide range of livability, which means that they cannot live in much different climate than what they do now. Which means, as hunters, farmers, etc., kill the wolves, they can't move like other wolves would have, because they would die because of the climate change as they travelled. Which, thus, gives them a limited area to live in, which humans are quickly pouring into.

Answer:

Mainly three reasons, hunters, habitat loss and because they are slow to breed. I watched some animal show couple of days ago about the Arabian Oryx, it mentioned something about the female Arabian Oryx being picky about their mate.

Answer:

Additional Information: The Arabian Oryx is listed with status of "endangered" according to the International Union for Conservation of Nature or the IUCN Red List, with the population trend "decreasing". They were considered extinct in the wild from the Arabian Peninsula in 1972, and reintroduced in 1982. Now the Oman population, having suffered illegal poaching of live animals for sale on the black market to collections, is left with mainly males in vastly depleted population numbers. They are protected within specific areas, and that protection is helping, but when they roam out of those areas, they no longer have any considerations and this has curtailed any attempts to reintroduce any captive Oryx into the wild. There is also the issue of overgrazing areas, and the serious drought conditions having adversely impacted their habitat. For more details, please see sites listed below.

Answer

As of 2012:

It is no longer listed as endangered it is currently listed as vulnerable. Thanks to tons of work by San Diego safari park, Phoenix zoo, international flora and fauna association, the saudi arabian government, the government of Yemen, and several private exotic animal owners there are now 1789 in the world and 563 in captivity.
