Inside world's largest camel hospital in Saudi
Introducing: The world's largest camel hospital
Location: Buraydah, Saudi Arabia
Dozens of the Kingdom's beloved desert animals
are treated in enclosures and specialized wards
at the Salam Veterinary Hospital
Vets there tend to anything
from chronic and infectious diseases
to conditions requiring radiology or surgery
Local camel owners and traders are relieved
as they no longer have to travel for miles
to receive treatment for their animals
(SOUNDBITE) (Arabic) CAMEL OWNER, OMAIR AL-QAHTANI, SAYING:
"Thank God, we are relieved, we found enough medication for camels here, of different kinds. As you can see, I found medicine for my camels here at the hospital that I could not find anywhere else. They also perform x-rays, medical analysis and are known for being fast."
The center opened in July 2020
with an investment of $36.5 mln
