Al Dhafra Camel Beauty Festival UAE 2014
The Al Dhafra Festival is held annually at Abu Dhabi, in the UAE. The camel beauty pageant is the highlight of this festival, featuring 30,000 camels from all over the Gulf region. It's something like a dog-show, with the animals being paraded around and given marks on their appearance.
The judges are looking for camels with big heads, wide necks, firm ears, broad cheeks and big whiskers. The body should be long, the hump and the back should be big, and the color and posture of the camel are important.
