Camel sighting!!
No, freaks!!

A *real* camel.

I went shopping the other day and this camel was in a horse trailer right in the middle of town.






"Kazzy's" handler said she is 8 years old and weighs 1752#'s.
Hair soft as a rabbit and muscle hard as a rock.

The handler said this camel is a "therapeutic animal".
They take it to assisted living facilties for the older people to enjoy.

When we first saw it we stayed WAY back. It could spit, right?

After we came of the store the handler was there, so it was OK to get close.

Really neat animal.

I went to Israel with my mom dad and sister when I was 6--we got to ride on a camel as a family. I was in front. Those damn things lift their hind legs first, then the fronts. The weight of everyone behind me smashed my nuts so hard against the saddle I almost died.

It started the day as a horse, but it "evolved" over the course of the trip.

A "therapeutic animal" - until it spits in your face! Those things are more tempermental than a teenager in heat.

Spitting or not their breath will turn a freight train up a dirt road...

ha ha this past summer while on a drive through Montana we noticed a fenced in field with a few camels, cows, horses and elk. Not a zoo either.

that's ridiculous. Anyone who looks at camel toe knows it has to be the product of ID.

Damn... that's the most well-groomed camel I've ever seen!
