Please note these camels would have otherwise been shot or destined for the abattoirs. We are opposed to this and will do whatever it takes to prove the camel is worthy of life and is a valuable animal.
In the U.A.E camels often live lives more opulent than people! We have since visited these camels and three years later they are looking happy & healthy.
The Camels in this footage represent one of the few cargo flights of trained Camels to exit Australia for the United Arab Emirates. Paul and Karen Ellis trained these Camels in order to accept veterinary procedures such as pregnancy testing and other necessary non violent test in order to meet Quarantine specifications and entry into the UAE. These Camels were taught other skills that would be required of them by their new handlers as well as confined space training that ensured there would be minimal stress for them whilst enclosed in their travel crates. Whenever you see close footage this demonstrates how happy they were to be near Karen whenever she entered the yards. These Camels remarkably had been wandering the Australian deserts one month prior to this footage. Camels are intelligent animals and if educated in a manner that they can understand they are able to learn quickly and for life.
