Comments on: Australian Woman Killed By Amorous Camel

The 330 Lb. Male Camel Had Been The Woman's 60th Birthday Present

Good grief.... I need to go scrub my eyes and brain with bleach after reading most of the posts on here. I never thought I would say something like this, but I sincelerely hope something horrid happens to some of you, so that the world can make such horrible comments about you and your own families. In alot of places, camels are used as work animals, same as horse and oxen, mules, there among the pack working class. Have been living among humans for centuries. Just goes to show, that animals are, and always will be unpredictable beings, and should be treated as such. AS for one person here.. I hope one bites a certain part of your body off, along with what ever part of your brain that is suffering sickness,so no children happen across what you have put up.

Perfect example of why people should not have "exotic" animals as pets.

Camel mating behavior is very entertaining. The male chases the female who gives a good run. Then she slows down - but doesn''t come to a full stop - and urinates. This is to let the male know to keep trying and he will have success. Then they run some more. Then she stops and kneels to the ground...and nature takes over.

If the woman was running away from the camel, it is quite natural that he thought he was going to get lucky.

i''m speechless - it''s hard not to laugh, but it really is tragic. but who in the he-l-l would give a camel as a birthday present?? stupid, stupid. wonder if the camel smoked a camel afterwards.

tmonta1, you still don''t know what you are talking about on this issue, you CAN''T know what you are talking about, because you have not seen it in person. The p0rn you see on-line is faked but gives a pretty good idea. Most dogs DONT breed, most are neutered, so satisfying their basic needs for s3x is no different than petting, grooming, treats.
It''s not just young males but males of ALL ages, they do have all the same parts men do.
Give me 2 minutes with any male dog at random and you''ll see how off-base you are, and how the dog responds positively- and wants more of the same.
Many, especially older males don''t even need much encouragement at all to go at it.

"Let ME Stop laughing tmonta1, as a life-long practicing zoophile since pre-puberty I can state without reservation or hesitation that this was NOT some BS dominance display, it''''s well known in my circles that male dogs are very interested in the smells of women''''s genitals. According to you I guess his mounting the sofa and humping it with an erec-tion is a dominance display to the SOFA!"

Newster,

Canines can have odd sexual impulses but it is FAR MORE FREQUENT for their attempts at ''humping'' humans to signify trying to establish dominance. Young male dogs have frequent erections and oddly-directed impulses but this generally diminishes with maturity and purely sexual impulses are directed towards more appropriate ''partners''--assuming they''re around.

Cases of dogs actually trying to have intercourse with humans for sexual pleasure are NOWHERE NEAR AS FREQUENT as the dominance issue.

I have no doubt however, that a few twisted humans can succeed in redirecting a dog''s natural instincts and conditioning his behavior so that they are satisfied in their own twisted needs. Don''t ever give him access to other dogs, stimulate and deprive him repeatedly, then only give him access to what you want him to have. There are some truly sick puppies out there, and I''m not referring to the canines.

Sorry Newster. While I%u2019m sure you''re totally into what you do, I don''t believe your experience at age 10 was your ''canine calling'' for this type of behavior--at least not from the dog''s view.

Stupid Aussie freaks? I guess you must think that nothing like this has ever happened anywhere else. Oh what an idiot you are.

Nice typing for a dead person btw :P

xcuse me I am from Mitchell, Queensland Australia

it was actually her family members that bought the animal and it wasn''''t 300+ when they gave it to her it was actually a baby. So you really all wanna stop running your mouths without knowing all the facts...

Listen dude, you CLAIM you are from Australia, but you have no proof here to back it up. As far as the 300# goes, DUH, it was a baby when they GAVE the camel to her, but they still GAVE her a 300 pound animal (now at age 10 months) that will get much heavier as he grows further.
They may have gave her a 25# animal initially but he is over 300# NOW and she''s dead.
