The Perl Camel - www.perl.org (original) (raw)

The Camel has been the symbol of Perl since its appearance on the cover of the first edition of Programming Perl. The camel with the topic of Perl is a trademark ofO’Reilly Media, Inc. Used with permission.

O'Reilly confirmed that Perl cannot use the specific camel image from the Programming Perl book, but a new camel image could be used. The key restriction is that no other publisher can use a camel on the cover of a book about Perl,

Starting in Dec 2024, a new Perl camel began to be used. The home for this is https://github.com/metacpan/perl-assets
