At the camel beauty contest in Oman, held in the Al-Mussanah governorate, a decision was made to disqualify 20 participants. The reason for this was the cosmetic procedures that the animals underwent, which were documented by veterinarians. This was reported by Kazinform, citing information from the Daily Mail.
This incident occurred during the Camel Beauty Show 2026 festival.
Beauty contests for camels have deep cultural roots in the Gulf countries and represent an important event reflecting the historical heritage of the region. The prize funds for such events can reach tens of millions of dollars.
