Camels, with their leg tied, run as a trader sets them up for a sale at the Birqash Camel Market, ahead of Eid ul Azha on the outskirts of Cairo, Egypt.
Birqash Camel Market, one of the biggest markets for camel meat in Africa, draws sellers from Libya, Sudan, Somalia and other regions in Egypt. The camels sold at the market are also used in tourism. Traders say that the selling rate for a camel in 2014 is anywhere between 5,000 and 20,000 Egyptian pounds.
