Do they race camels in somalia

[cunug3aad]

Camel racing looks like this If they dont they should probably start It looks live still

 

[balanbalis]

We do horse races, I'm not sure about camels

 

[Somali Saayid]

Camels are too respected in Somalia to be used for sport. Ive never seen a Somali riding a camel let alone making it into a race horse camel.

 

[Avalanche]

No, this is cruel to the animal.

 

[cunug3aad]

I see

 

[Garaad Awal]

Somalis never rode camels so never developed a camel racing culture.

We don't have enough midgets. For instance the average Yemeni male is 5'2

 

[Chaseyourdreamzz]

I don’t think Somalis even ride camels let alone race them

 

[bobby_hill-Punt]

Also the camel is a Somali best friend.

 

[Doctorabdi]

Also the camel is a Somali best friend.

Same with arabians, they have significant importance on camels. Somalis rode horses, instead not camels. Only very young children are able to ride on camels from what i've seen

 

[Burqad]

Animals can either be ridden, eaten or used as beasts of burden. It’s cruel to do all three to the same animal.

What makes these animal races popular is the gambling aspect . People don't really give a shit about the actual race .

Gambling is haram so I don't think it'd ever become a big thing .
