Drought conditions drive camels out of the desert and onto farms in Central Australia, where they're competing with cattle for precious water. Hundreds of feral camels are culled daily leaving thousands of carcasses to rot, a waste of meat some say could be avoided. But the road to market is not easy. 📺Watch the full series here: • Meet The Ferals | Land...

Just to put harvesting into prospection. To shoot a rabbit, the professional must be fully licensed, his vehicle, his firearms and his on site coolrooms licensed and inspected annually and the shooter must hold a competency certificate and have completed a course in meat handling. Then additional licensed transport is required. When the humble rabbit is delivered to, again a licensed Game Meat Processor, this company is audited quarterly and a specific meat inspector employed. For camels the isolation of the area and the cost of transport together with the somewhat small quantity of edible meat, makes the whole scenario uneconomical.

There has to be a market for the meat at the very least. Put the abattoirs on transport trucks and bring them to the remote feral herds. Freeze the meat and transport it to markets in reefer vans packed to the roof. Even if the leather, milk and other markets are slow to develop, it will rein in the uncontrolled growth of an invasive animals. The meat can be fed to dogs or zoos or as protein for farmed fish or whatever people prefer to eat. I'm pretty sure it'd make a decent grilled burger too.

Throwing reality into the equation will be a bit much for some to grasp. Logistics of dealing with meat for human consumption hygienically and the quality assurance procedures needed make actual costs high. And commercial harvest is not a solution to control: as populations are reduced towards what might be more acceptable damage levels the costs go up. And so instead of control you get exploitation and protection of population levels that are commercially viable. It does seem that a well organised and resourced (would be expensive) program could eradicate them. This may be optimistic, as habits and habitat use are distant from personal experience. But they are big slugs in open country, and very vulnerable to aerial shooting. Would seem to be a case of identifying the water points, working from the distribution fringe inwards. There seems little excuse for not getting everything encountered unless they have some way of hiding. Opinions why that would be impractical would be interesting (the situation is unfamiliar & speculation can be unrealistic)

@@21coute The problem with the excuse that "the cost is too high" is because people are not advertising it across the nation and overseas. Look at all the comments saying they are interested in a camel meat market. You can't just wait for a high demand to occur out of thin air. YOU NEED TO ADVERTISE. To me, the most realistic and least likely to fail is starting a raw camel meat and organs company for the pet industry. The demand for raw meat products is getting higher by the year. This is a much more viable option than marketing for human consumption. Dogs, cats and ferrets need to eat large amounts of meat to stay healthy, whereas for humans meat is a small portion of their diet.

I as a kid lived on only camel milk for two straight months without water or anything else. As my system was withdrawing from sugar and every other chemicals..it was torture to get used it from the 1st two weeks. But all of sudden magic happened. As my system cleansed fron sugar I honestly cannot explain how sweet milk became. You see every camel is different and unique respect how their milk tests. Some are little creamy, some little sweat. Your stool becomes like water every time primarily because there is nothing else on your guts and you become clean inside out. Your skin becomes like realy brownish and you amazing health in over all. Its like you are trained as a Olympic athlete and you became into your full potential. I remember at that whenever I think about sugar, rice and the other I used to eat it was like I want to draw up and never go back to it. But when we come to the villages of course processed food was unavoidable. Give it one straight month with nothing but a camel milk and force yourself to it. And drink a lot every chance you get. If are diabetes you will be cured. That i know i for sure.

Camels are worth around 1000 USD per head in the ME. When do we learn to use our resources that others would dream of rather than trashing it? The key is to have a land near a port that collects the ongoing animals which are caught from the outback, keeping them and feed them to reach certain number to be ready for shipping/slaughtering. Another helping technology would be design of the trucks, tall enough to maintain two layers of camels alive although even one story would be fine. Having camels as our product means the ongoing problem with drought would be meaningless. I see a day cattle stations that would have a mixture of cattle and camel heard or goat and camel. When do we want to learn to grow what is suitable for our climate, we are not in Europe anymore. If we Australians are incapable of harvesting this treasure, allow Chinese and Arab companies come and solve the problem and bring money and jobs. This will create a lot of jobs for rural area particularly in indigenous communities.

The reason that it is not widely used for human consumption is that it doesnt have a taste that most people enjoy. Camel is not like that. It has been being used by human probably longer than cow meat and it has its fans in many countries in the world. 2. The camels in Australia have higher value than other camels in the world because they are disease free and also never been treated by medicine nor grain fed (organic meat). 3.

Shame this story didn't have a bit more of a balanced point of view. The Invasive Species Council say it well: _"A prominent problem is that creating a market engenders pressure to maintain that problematic species.’ Evidence from around the world confirms that the creation of markets for pests seldom reduces pest problems and often becomes counterproductive."_ So basically If camel farming did go ahead, infrastructure was set up, jobs filled etc, are all those invested going to be happy once the feral problem & supply dries up or are they going to take a few, release a few to keep the wild stocks up as has happened in other countries? "You can't shoot a problem away" - hmmm the Tasmanian Tigers disagree. I think we just need to get our a**'s into gear with multiple, science based approaches like we are with other invasive species.
