A story about Camel Jockeys
This is from Reuters and is not a parody:
DOHA (Reuters) - Qatar plans to start using robots as riders in popular camel races after international criticism of the use of child jockeys….
Rights groups say several thousand boys, some as young as four, work as camel jockeys in the oil-rich Gulf, many after being abducted or sold by their families mainly from the Indian subcontinent. They say the boys are kept in prison-like conditions and underfed to keep them light so the camels run faster.
