Abstract
A few studies conducting on artificial insemination in camels, and those that do tend to have inferior results when compared to studies on animals that regularly use  artificial insemination and cryopreservation (1). This article is a review to an updating researches and studies that interest in AI in camels. It includes definition and history of AI in camel, advantages and disadvantages of AI, methods of semen collection, methods of AI, time of insemination, semen diluents with deep focusing on the problems facing AI in camels. In conclusion, we noticed that AI in camel develops very slowly comparing to other farm animals due to several difficulties and problems mainly the timing of ovulation in female in relation to AI as the camels are induced ovulation animals. On the other hand, there is a dramatic growing in successful studying the methods that helps to overcoming the problems and difficulties that facing AI in camel. More efforts are needed to develop AI in camel to be easily, widely and globally used.
