Letter Published in The Nationl UAE on 23 June 19 Praise for the graceful Middle Eastern camels
I write in reference to your editorial Take a moment to appreciate the ancient ships of the desert (June 20). This article on camels, also known by that affectionate nickname, was a moving read. On the auspicious occasion of World Camel Day this weekend, it offered an apt tribute for the gracious animals. Camels are respected across the Middle East and have helped in the baking sun by carrying people and luggage for centuries. When I was in the UAE, I saw plenty of camels while enjoying desert safaris. There is no doubt that the camel is a truly proud feature of the desert.
