camel racing
Dromedary speed contest
Camel racing is a competitive sport in which jockeys ride camels at speed, popular in the Middle East, North Africa, and parts of Asia.
Traditionally associated with Bedouin culture, modern camel racing has become a professional sport with significant prize money, particularly in Gulf states like the UAE and Qatar.
Concerns over child jockeys led to their replacement with small robotic riders in many countries.
