I can't get this visual out of my mind.
Authorities in Louisiana say a camel at a truck stop petting zoo sat on a woman after she crawled into its enclosure.
Iberville Parish Sheriff's officials told The Advocate on Sunday that the Florida woman's husband had been throwing treats to their dog under the camel's fence. Their dog went into the enclosure and the woman crawled under barbed wire to retrieve the pet.
“It was just crazy,” Pamela Bossier, manager of the Tiger Truck Stop, told The Washington Post on Monday, “to the point of, why would somebody do that?"
That's when the 600-pound camel sat on her. She told deputies she bit the camel to free herself.
"She said, ‘I bit his balls to get him off of me, I bit his testicles to get him off of me,'” Iberville Parish Deputy Louis Hamilton Jr. said.
