They’ve seen a variety of Aussie wild animals and also been ferreted out by bushfires, yet absolutely nothing fairly contrasts to the minute feral camels trembled the ground underneath them at Curtin Springs in the Northern Territory just recently.

Panicked campers had no concept what was occurring

“The noise of their hooves on the ground certainly got many campers out of their caravans and motorhomes to find out what was happening,” he claimed. “The campsite was very busy; there would have been at least 50 people camping there… there was a fellow from the vehicle next to us who saw them at the same time as we did. He didn’t say much, just sort of watched them in disbelief.”
The camels relatively “disappeared” as promptly as they got here, leaving Lennon to examine if it also took place in any way. “The camels just came charging through the bush and went on their merry way,” he claimed.
It’s not the very first time camels have actually made a shock look at an Aussie camping site, with one lady and her household in shock to find big impacts at a loss dust of their camping site just recently.
