Our Projects
Camel Project
This project was set up in 2001 and has been in demand ever since.
So far 102785 camels have received treatment from our team.
Camels are used as draught animals in Rajasthan and are used to pull cargo on wooden carts in and out of the city. They are also used to plough fields in the villages.
The cargo they transport is very varied.
1. This is Fodder
2. This is grain
3. This is wood – the cargo is very heavy as is the wooden cart itself
4. The saddlery is heavy and roughly designed and often causes injury to the camels with saddle sores on their backs
5. They are steered and controlled by the use of wooden nose pegs which tear and wound the camel’s noses we have designed a plastic peg which is much kinder and safer for the camel
6. The carts often travel at night on very busy roads and cannot be seen which means that camel carts are often involved in serious accidents, some of which are fatal. We apply reflectors to the carts so they can be seen at night.
7. So far we have applied reflectors to 15424 carts
8. The mobile clinic treats sick camels this goes out into the rural areas of Jaipur three times a week to treat sick camels, educate owners about camel welfare and health and advise on saddlery and nose pegs to minimise injury to the camels when they are working. Often the camel’s health is vital for a family’s survival so in caring for the camels, we also help to keep a family healthy and well
9. And provides education to the owners
10. And provides education to the owners
11. There is a centre at Bassi which is for camels to receive long term care and rehabilitation this is near to the centre in Jaipur
12. And an annual camp to Pushkar Camel Fair
