Looks like we missed out on a publicity opportunity here:
http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/asiapcf/east/11/15/offbeat.camel.beauty.ap/index.html
"...the first international camel festival."
The beauty competition in the Inner Mongolia region attracted
nearly 100 dressed-up camels "as well as more than 2,000 fans,"
the official Xinhua News Agency said Saturday. It didn't specify
who the "fans" were or where they came from.
All right, next time there's a camel beauty pageant, we got to get on
board, people!
:-)
Why it claims that this was a beauty contest for dromedaries yet the
event was held in the main habitat for bactrians was not explained.
