Beauty doesn’t discriminate. Even the camels aren’t safe.
In the newspaper earlier this weeks we could read about the camel beauty festival (because..of course there is one!) in Saudi where several camels were disqualified because they had used Botox. Gosh, these camels…don’t they know that’s breaking the rules!
Well, since the prize money is almost 32 million USD I guess the competition is crucial… The judges are looking at size of the hump, of course..size of lips and jaw, size of head and color of the coat. It all sounds very horrible. Poor animals. Even a veterinarian was caught cheating as her performed plastic surgery on some camels.
Normally camels are a big deal in the Middle East. If you hit a camel with your car, as they do wonder of occasionally or wild ones comes too close to the road, you are in for a huge penalty from the police. Buying a camel can cost you several hundred thousands of USD.
And just a thought. If you were a camel, surely you would just bleach you teeth.

Definitely would have been interesting to see all these camels in one place. It’s a huge event!

I heard about this on the BBC satellite radio. The camels cannot make the choice to go through this so that to me is the sad part. But let me tell you in the US there have been people banned from competition with Arabian horses because of plastic surgery done to their horse’s eyes! Yup!

I didn’t know they did it on horses as well. Poor creatures . What have we come to….all about money. But I see it as a positive that it’s getting attention and that people are getting banned.

Oh no, the poor camels. What a ridiculous place the world is becoming! I know a person who looks like a camel but I suspect he never had botox. He wouldn’t be winning any pretty camel contests either…
