PG - 554 LID - 10.1007/s11250-021-02985-9 [doi] AB - In this study, the use of the three-dimensional modeling method was tested in taking some body measurements in camels with a practical method and was compared with other measurement methods. As the animal material of the study, 12 single-humped dromedary female camels and 14 double-humped Camelus dromedarius x Camelus bactrianus: F1 male camels, a total of 26 camels, were used in three camel farms in Incirliova district of Aydin province. The body measurements are taken from each animal by using different three methods, namely by the manual method (MM), by the photography method (PM), and by the three-dimensional modeling method (3D) were the withers height (WH), the back height (BH), the rump height (RH), the body length (BL), the brisket height (BRH), the abdominal height (AH), the shoulder width (SW), and the rump width (RW), and these values were compared with each other. As a result of this study, the mean values of MM and 3D measurement values were very close to each other and the difference between them was found to be statistically insignificant (P < 0.05). The difference between the means of PM and MM/3D measurement values was found to be significant (P < 0.05). In the measurements taken by MM, 3D, and PM methods in male camels, the values obtained by MM and 3D methods for WH, BH, RH, BRH, AH, BL, and SW were very close to each other and the differences between them were found insignificant statistically (p < 0.05). On the determined regression graph, a linear was found between MM and 3D measurement values. As a result of this study, it has been determined that the 3D modeling method can be used as a remote and more practical method in determining the morphological features of large-scale animals such as camels more reliably, more easily, and more practically.
