It's a sport much loved in Anatolia -- the fabled practice of camel wrestling, when two fully grown Tulu camels battle it out in front of paying spectators. Afficionados say the sport is a gentle tradition which takes good care of its participants, all of whom are reared from birth specifically for their prowess in the ring. Duration: 01:47
