"Indian Camel Contigent"


5 of 9

Indian Border Security Force constables train for warfare in the desert at a training center in Jodphur, India February 10,2004. Camels are still employed for patrol work by the BSF and they have some of the finest trained riding camels in the world. The BSF perform with up to 50 camels at a time at the festivals and their performances and maneuvers are spectacular, often crawling on their knees, lying on the side and multiple gymnastic riding.
