Description
Donkeys pull wooden carts as they race down a track in Bahrain, while riders whip their backs with sticks. These informal races are condemned by animal rights activists, but they are a cherished tradition for locals. "We have been here at the popular Bersar Racecourse for nearly 25 years. This event has been well known for many years," says Abdullah Salem, one of the organisers. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
