CAMEL WRESTLING FESTIVAL

 

Turks are not the only great wrestlers on the Turkish countryside. Would you believe Camels? That's right Camel wrestling can be seen every year during the Camel Wrestling Championship in Selcuk, Turkey in January.

Camel wrestling in an unusual sport to put it mildly. Most of the time the camels will run away, butt heads a little, or maybe even nothing at all. The fun in Camel Wrestling is waiting to see what happens next. How it started no one is such but most believe it started during nomad times.
