Botox for camels: Saudi breeders fined over $100,000 under new law
2018-02-20
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Big lips, long necks and prominent humps are the greatest attributes of a beautiful camel showcased at Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
’s annual camel beauty pageant.

The camels compete for a whopping prize money of $57 million. These luring sums have pushed some camel breeders to inject the desert animals with Botox.

"When it comes to rare beauty, not everyone will have the financial means to participate in the auction and compete. People pay large sums of money up to 6-7 million, and more without exaggeration. However,
there's no worse danger than telling a mother her baby is ugly...
it all depends on the rare beauty. The rarer, the more expensive.", Says head of panel of judges, Fawzan al-Madi.

Authorities in Saudi Arabia have imposed fines up to $109,000 against owners enhancing their camels’ features with Botox.

"The camel is considered an old symbol of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It is a source of pride for the sons of the peninsula. In the past, it represented food, clothing and transportation. It represented everything.", adds al-Madi.

Saudi Arabia recognizes that such procedures violate animal rights and compromises with the camels’ identities.
