So Camels also do botox. lol…12 camels have been
disqualified from the annual King Abdulaziz Camel Festival in Saudi
Arabia due to use of Botox.
The camels were banned from the contest after it was discovered that they had used Botox, reports said.
A handbook that was issued to beauty contest entrants last
year noted that camels with injections in the lips, or those with shaved
or dyed parts of the body, or with any sort of manipulations to their
natural form are not allowed to participate in the contest.

“The camel is a symbol of Saudi Arabia, we used to prefer
it out of necessity, now we preserve it as a pastime” chief judge of the
show Fawzan al-Madi said in an interview with Reuters.
According to Saudi Arabian Live, Camel beauty contests are a
serious business in Saudi Arabia. 213 million riyals ($57 million) is
up for grabs hence there is a great temptation to cheat for people.
