Twelve prized camels have been disqualified from a beauty contest in Saudi Arabia after their owners tried to tweak their good looks with Botox.
Thousands of camels are paraded at the King Abdulaziz Camel Festival to be judged on their shapely lips and humps.
But judges stepped in when they discovered some owners had cheated in a bid to win the cash prizes.
The festival, which also features camel racing and camel milk tasting, has combined prize money of $57m (£40m).
