I remember when I was just a little hillbilly, the tabloids were very graphic with blood and gore, and I saw a picture of a man in the middle east somewhere who had his whole face bitten off by a camel. I never forgot that for some reason.

A few years ago me and the blond stopped at a zoo and they had a couple camels in an enclosure with a low fence about 5 feet tall and you could go right up to the fence and feed them if you wanted to, which I declined. They were telling people to not hand them anything with their fingers but to cup your hands and let them eat out of there because it was safer, which I also declined.

One camel reached down over the fence and put his mouth completely around the top of a young woman's head and she jumped back quickly and everybody laughed. I couldn't believe that place was so nonchalant about safety with those camels. People were letting their kids feed them while they took pictures which I thought was crazy. They could snap your hand off like taking a bite out of a hot dog.
