HAVE you ever wondered how a camel maintains its pouty lips? Neither have we.
But at Saudi Arabia's King Abdulaziz Camel Festival 12 dromedaries were recently disqualified from the annual "Camel Beauty Pageant" event for allegedly using Botox to improve the look of their lips and jawline.
According to Ali al-Mazrouei, the son of an Emirati camel breeder, the botox injections "make the head of the camel look more inflated so when the camel comes out it's like oh, look at how big that head is".
Although one should never endorse cheating, full credit should be given to the camels for successfully administering the Botox injections themselves with those cumbersome hooves.
