PAKISTAN-Abusive Camel Weightlifting Competition

This petition is one of 94 petitions in the movement “Protect Endangered and Harmed Animals.”Learn more about the movement.

The Issue

Abusive barbaric CAMEL weight lifting competitions are being held in Pakistan on an annual basis. Camels are forced to lift tons and tons of heavy bricks and sacks so that their owners can win monetary cash prizes at the end of these atrocious so called competitions! 

PETA director Elisa Allen said: 'If anyone wishes to enter a weight-lifting contest, they should train and have to go at it, but leave the animals out of it.

'Camels are intelligent, sensitive individuals, and treating them as living cranes for human amusement adds to the many types of abuse, including their eventual slaughter.

Sheezada ( camel) lifted 1.7tons to win the contest, the equivalent of a small car

we request Imran Khan and Government of Pakistan to ban such competitions and strictly enforce the law so that such merciless brutal events are not arranged illegally
