Camel Education

I am determined to be smarter than the camel.  I have some new reading material and although I have not started reading it, the front cover already shows what an interesting read it will be. Here is what it says...

Introducing the Camel

Interestingly enough, if you check out this resource: http://www.camelphotos.com/index.html

you'll see some similarities on training camels and training dogs. There's a lot of the "pack leader/calm-assertive" theory involved. The site is pretty cool to educate you about all things camel... I learned a ton!

CALM/ASSERTIVE! I'm guessing whoever invented that techinque with camels has never exeperienced an attempted rape by a male in rut!!!!!!!

I struggle to remain calm around the camels but I am determined to regain my composure around them.

But I will check out the site...thanks for the tip!
