Where are the Camels?
In last few years I have noticed a great deterioration of Camel population in Qatar. Earlier I used to see herds of camels on my way to Dukhan and Messeid but not for last two years those numbers seem to be declining. this is just my observation and I dont have any statistical analysis to prove. Have others noticed the same? Where are these camels vanishing?
Where can I get camel milk. It is good for diabetes.
Rizks, let try that, but my wies complaining already !! got to comment before this too gets shut down :)
avam - The fences are a good way of keeping the camels safe and it shows our government's committment to animal welfare.
It did britey !
Did the Camel Milk do its job ?
Shahniya we have Al Dosiri Farm house, were usually i have seen many camels and infact at times i got camels milks too frm the people staying there !
Camels are huge animals therefore it is difficult to not spot one.Crashing into one is different story because of their unpredictable nature.What is missed is the fine unbroken line on both the sides of the road (fencing) to benefit both,drivers and camels.We should be thanking the government's effort for fencing, for the benefit of all highway user.
I had very similar views until recently when I visited eye doctor who changed my prescription for a better view.Since then I never missed those fencings.
Cherrukan - You are a very smart guy but my friends are the ones who asked me this question. Once I get the answers here, I will go back to them with a full report :)
Many are being kept in pens away from main roads and some have even been moved to Saudi.. away from curious expats :o)
Risks Daru was here a week ago.
Bluebull, if you have a friend who provides you camel milk every day why don't you ask him this question.
I think that can be one reason Rizks...there is a long history of competition between camelss and horses. Camels become jealous very fast and refuse to give rides to people who rise horses. History is full of such examples. We only need to find that tree and talk to all the camels as a team.
Let me know your thoughts on this important political issue.
There are many benefits of Camel Milk, you may search in google for the benefits !
Bluebull, infact i have too noticed on the way to Mesaieed i dont see the herds of camel near tat one tree -i think u defo might know where all the camels gather ? but instead, i have seen one guy after 4pm rides HORSE in tat area...
ok go ahead we love stories lol :D
Camel milk is good for the eyesight.

MOD- no its not prohibited in Islam to drink Camel Milk...infact our prophets used to drink Camel milk with Dates...
and for ur infor we get Camel Meat Machboos served in some of the hotels here too....
BG, is it good for BANANA... :P
Memories of Dawn ( MoD) - As far as I know, it is not prohibited. But I only know so much.
I have my Qatari friends with farms who regularly provide me with one litre camel milk everyday and I think it's not prohibited.
Rizks - Camel walk all the time I thought. The babies walk alongside their mothers. Feeding is a real problem specially if there is no grass.But who is to be blamed?
Bull looking for Camels?? :)
haven't seen DaRuDe too these days on QL, dunno where hes vanished...:)
I think during summer these Camels are out for feeding and walk etc ?
