Prior to visiting Oman I did not appreciate how important camels are in the Gulf States. In Oman they keep camels for milk, meat, as pets, for tourist rides and for racing. A few are still used for transport. You see camels everywhere and camel racing is a serious business.. Out in the country you see big herds of camels and herdsmen looking over them. You even see them on vacant land in the towns. Omanis love their camels.
