Journal Article
Artificial Selection and Camel Management in Dhofar
2024
Overview
In Dhofar, the traditional camel pastoralists continuously carry out artificial selection on their animals. This practice is part of the herds' management, which targets certain essential objectives related to well-being of camels' herds and the herdsmen. The objective of this selection is to produce female camels that are good milking and males, which are good looking and decedents of good productive mothers. Artificial selection practice was examined through informal interviews with the traditional camel pastoralists in Dhofar. It is to perceive and comprehend its nature, the purpose and the reason for which it is very frequently carried out. Simultaneously, the paper examines the possibilities of artificial selection practice by prehistoric camel herdsmen in Dhofar. The traditional practice of selection can potentially offer a reasonable analogy for the prehistoric camel management.
