Seasonality and movements of camels and camel activities. (A) Dark green locations and periods of time indicate a high concentration of camels. The arrows show the direction of camel movements. It is shown that many camels gather and mix at the animal market, racing track, and breeding farms in Qatar in August, September and October. Moreover, there is constant movement to and from grazing grounds and racing tracks outside of Qatar. In March and April, most camels travel back to their barns.
