An Indian guy who left his camel out in the heat all day paid the price with his life.
“The animal lifted him by the neck and threw him on to the ground, chewed the body, and severed the head,” villager Thakara Ram told The Times of India.
For about six hours 25 people fought to control the camel.
The probability of camels attacking people is not particularly high.
However, camel attacks can be vicious and result in unexpectedly violent outcomes.
An American owner of a sanctuary for animals in Mexico was killed by a camel the previous autumn after it bit and kicked him into submission before finally suffocating him by sitting on him.
Some claim that the camel became angry because it didn’t get its daily Coca-Cola that day.
In that instance, the sufferer lived.
However, male camels are known to engage in fights with their female counterparts and to have an aggressive streak.
Camels typically kick in a circular motion, but for some reason, according to experts, they generally avoid kicking people.
