A festival dedicated to finding the most beautiful Damascene goat drew goat breeders and livestock merchants to the Saudi capital Riyadh. The Mazayen al-Maaz - or 'Beautiful Traits of Goats' - festival saw the display of dozens of Damascene goats. Damascene goats with their distinctive protruding nose, have historically played a crucial role in traditional Arab nomadic lifestyle and economy.
To be honest, I had to look twice to recognize a goat in the picture above.
