Camels banned from Saudi beauty contest over Botox

Thousands of camels are paraded at the King Abdulaziz Camel Festival to be judged on their shapely lips and humps. But judges stepped in when they discovered some owners had cheated in a bid to win the cash prizes.

Ali Al Mazrouei, the son of a top Emirati breeder, said Botox was used for the lips, the nose and even the jaw, news website The National reported.

"It makes the head more inflated so when the camel comes it's like, 'oh look at how big that head is. It has big lips, a big nose'," he said.
Judges are also looking for perfectly placed humps, muscular physiques and leathery mouths.
