Saudi Arabia is launching a passport project for camels. The Saudi government has introduced a passport system for the local camel population.
In a statement made by the Saudi Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture, it was stated that "The Deputy Minister introduced the camel passport with the aim of increasing the productivity of the livestock sector and creating a database for camels."
According to the ministry's statement, the camel passport will be an officially accredited document containing information about the animal, its breed, and its owner.
It was noted that the passports, which are intended to ensure the creation of an accurate and reliable medical file for each camel, will include a detailed vaccination record that will facilitate efforts to monitor infectious diseases across the population.
The ministry stated that the passports will also simplify the process of verifying ownership rights and will improve selective breeding practices for livestock farmers.
