Camel racing is a popular sport in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Australia, and Mongolia. Camels can run at speeds up to 65 km/h (18 m/s; 40 mp/h) in short sprints and they can maintain a speed of 40km/h (11 m/s; 25 mp/h) for an hour.
In the past, Camels were controlled by child jockeys, but allegations of human rights abuses have led to nationwide bans on underage labor in the UAE and Qatar. The controversy over the enslavement of children has led to use of robot-controlled camels.
