Camel kills 100-year-old man in Saudi Mad camel chews parts of the old man's body By Staff Published Friday, December 03, 2010 A mad camel attacked and killed its 100-year-old Saudi owner after biting off parts of his head and body, Kabar newspaper reported on Friday. The man was inspecting his camel herd in a village on the Gulf Kingdom’s western coast when the female camel went berserk and attacked him, it said. “It bit off part of his head and hands…when his relatives later came to look for him, they found him lying on the ground with heavy bleeding,” the paper said. “They found that the camel had also eaten parts of his body…they tried to take him to hospital but he was already dead.”

Years ago, I was at the Islamic Port of Jeddah. A ship had recently arrived and was offloading its cargo: herds of camels from Somalia. Talk about “coals to Newcastle.”
