Each month the villagers sell around 200 baby camels to Saudi Arabia and 120 adult ones to Egypt for human consumption, says Mr Hamid, pointing out a large female that will fetch as much as 25,000 Sudanese pounds ($1,525 at the black-market exchange rate) .

Livestock is a big and growing business all over east Africa, in considerable part fuelled by the Gulf's increasing appetite for meat. Live Sudanese animal exports more than trebled to $670m between 2010 and 2013 (the most recent years for which the World Bank has data) .
在整個(gè)東非地區(qū)，牲畜貿(mào)易都是大買賣，近年來(lái)發(fā)展迅速，很大程度上源于海灣地區(qū)對(duì)駱駝肉的需求上漲。2010年至2013年間（世界銀行的最新數(shù)據(jù)），蘇丹的活牲畜出口額翻了三倍多，達(dá)6.7億美元。
More than 70% were sheep, demand for which surges around the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha, when they are ceremonially slaughtered. In 2015 Somalia sold 5.3m animals, worth $384m; livestock counts for 40% of that fractured country's GDP.
其中70%以上是羊，羊的需求量會(huì)在穆斯林古爾邦節(jié)來(lái)臨之際大漲，因?yàn)槟菚r(shí)候這些羊會(huì)作為節(jié)日祭品宰殺。2015年，索馬里售出530萬(wàn)頭牲畜，價(jià)值3.84億美元；牲畜業(yè)占到這個(gè)支離破碎的國(guó)家的國(guó)內(nèi)生產(chǎn)總值的40%。
Other Sudanese may?sneer?that the Rashaida's new cars and houses have been bought with the proceeds of people-smuggling. But there is plenty of money to be made in the legitimate business of exporting livestock.
其它蘇丹人可能會(huì)嘲笑拉舍達(dá)人的新車子新房子是販賣人口賺來(lái)的。但事實(shí)上，不少錢是通過(guò)牲畜出口貿(mào)易合法賺來(lái)的。
