(AP) An Australian woman was killed by a pet camel given to her as a 60th birthday present after the animal apparently tried to have sex, police said Sunday.
The woman, whose name was not released, was killed Saturday at her family's sheep and cattle ranch near Mitchell, 350 miles west of the Queensland state capital Brisbane, state police Detective Senior Constable Craig Gregory said.
The 10-month-old male camel — weighing about 330 pounds — knocked the woman to the ground, lay on top of her, then exhibited what police suspect was mating behavior, Gregory said.
"I'd say it's probably been playing, or it may be even a sexual sort of thing," Gregory said, adding the camel almost suffocated the family's pet goat by straddling it on several occasions.
Camel expert Chris Hill said he had no doubt the camel's behavior was sexual.
Humped To Death
There are many ways to die, but I never considered death by horny camel to be one of them. BTW, how do you become a camel expert.

Ummmmm.... This sounds very strange, doesn't it? I think more investigation is required. Perhaps we could send some Islamic terrorists to this 'farm' to check things out???
heh
Uhhh, I don't think I will really say what I am thinking.
Did they get any camel toe pics?
Before anyone else says it, historically, that thing about Catherine the Great? NOT TRUE...
I've heard of dolphins trying to have sex with people, but not CAMELS!!!
Debbie,
Strange is one way of putting it.
Sweet,
No, go ahead. :)
Mark,
Stay tuned.
KRG,
Maybe not, but I heard she'd walk a mile for a camel. ;)
CR,
Pretty weird.
I'd hate to think how the camel expert deduced the behaviour was sexual!
