Camel science: current scenario and future envision

T

he biotechnological advancements have made new technologies and skills which are now available to help the identification

of new potentialities of camel as an animal of unique attributes which would not only benefit the human and animal health

but would be a favorite to researchers. Agranian society and traditional breeders will remain in scenario all the time as they

produce and manage most of the camels. Research direction would be therefore more relevant when Agrarian society adopts

modern breeding, management and health practices and scientists suggest value addition to this unique species. A focus on

nutraceutical value of camel meat and milk may create a big consumer base which would be viewed as unique human health

advantage. The camel racing industry must upkeep and modernize their breeding programs to preserve the germ plasm of best

racing breeds. A large-scale vaccination program should be on priority in addition to increase in nutrition scale to camels.

The diagnostic laboratories and veterinary hospital facilities should be functional in thick camel population zones to prevent

morbidity and mortality. The scientific papers published in the

Journal of Camel Practice and Research

indicated a genuine

trend of camel science and current research. The missing links of research were drawn out and were enlisted as a future vision

of camel science.
