CAMELS AND HORSES
Camels and Horses
There are many similarities between horses and camels. Both of them are domestic animals. Camels are mammals and so are horses. Camels are used for traveling and racing. Horses are also used for the same purposes. Saudis are fond of both these animals. They are both expensive to buy. Neither camels nor horses are dangerous animals.
There are, however, a number of differences between these two animals. Camels are bigger in size and heavier in weight than horses. The height of the former is normally about 3 meters. On the other hand, horses are normally around 1.5 meters only. Camels are normally 2500 kilograms in weight whereas horses can reach only up to 500 kilograms. The meat and the milk of camels are edible and very healthy for man whereas the same of horses are non edible. Hence, horses are useless in this aspect. Camels are more expensive that horses. The price of a normal camel is around 7000 Riyals. However, camels that are used in racing can reach millions. Horses, on the other hand, cost only a few thousand Riyals, except the ones used for racing. Camels are very common in the Kingdom while horses are rarely found. The young ones of camels are called calves while foal is the name of the young ones of horses. Camels can be raised in deserts even by common people whereas only rich people can afford to raise horses.
In conclusion, I prefer to set up a camel farm after graduation because its milk and meat can bring good revenue as a part time business for me. Moreover, it is easier to raise, to buy and to sell them.
