The rare Indian swimming camels under threat

The Kharai are a rare breed of camel found in the salt marshes of Kutch district in the western state of Gujarat.

They swim up to three kilometres in the shallow seas to reach their grazing land - the region's mangroves. But now local herdsmen say it's taking longer and getting harder to find mangroves where their camels can graze.

Salt companies in the region are blocking tidal water and slowly drying up mangroves. And this is endangering the lives of the camels as well as their future.

India's swimming camels under threat India's unique Kharai camels can swim in the sea. But their habitat is slowly disappearing.

Thousands of culled camels are rotting in the desert. Is this an answer to the wastage? Pastoralists exhausted from shooting hundreds of feral camels a day would like to see the otherwise wasted meat commercialised.

Central SA - Picture says it all really. Thanks to Janet Howard for sharing, who said:

"Spotted Christmas Day just on the side of the road sheltering from the heat. Even the hardy camels are suffering from this bloody awful drought."

Today's Solar Eclipse, Saudi Arabia. Wow!
