Over 40 Camels Disqualified From Saudi Beauty Contest Over Enhancements

Organizers of a beauty contest for camels in Saudi Arabia said 43 animals have been disqualified for receiving Botox treatments, facelifts and other cosmetic procedures.

Officials with the month-long King Abdulaziz Camel Festival in the desert northeast of Riyadh said examinations of the camels entered in the beauty contest revealed 43 of the animals had received Botox injections, face-lift procedures, hormone injections and other banned enhancements.

The contest, which carries a price of $66 million for the winning animal’s breeder, features judges rating the humped animal based on the shapes of their heads, necks, as well as the camels’ dress and postures.

Officials said advanced technology was used to screen the animals for artificial enhancements, and 43 of the camels were disqualified due to the findings. They said it was the highest number of disqualifications in the contest’s history.
