The culler of money

Article Abstract:

Camels have an immune system capable of handling most diseases and are able to deal with global warming, shortages of food and water, while simultaneously transporting people and producing milk, meat and fibre. An auction in Rockhampton has heralded the birth of an exciting new industry for Australia where buyers of camels included beef producers snapping up the animals for grazing control of problem weeds, and some looking to form breeding herds in expectation of the developing global meat market.
