Given that camels are a herd animal the question lingers: Is it okay just to have one camel or should they be with their own kind? We understand that in different parts of the world different privileges play out on the accessibility (and the buying) of camels. In Australia we are very privileged as camels are relativity assessable and not a huge investment - compared to the United States for instance. We answer this question: Can I Have Just One Camel, from the camels perspective and we also share our experiences with a variety of situations form the camel being on its own to with other animals; the camel having a human companion; the camel being in a herd environment or just with another camel.

You might hear a lot about what to do, but we’d thought we’d take it a step further and explain what NOT to do - and actually explain the reasons why.

In today episode we give advice and tips on some things to STOP doing in your camel training & handling with explanation - from a camels perspective. You just might be relieved to hear some of these things.

Did you know camels can kick with their front legs AND back legs AND also do this while sitting down...? One of the scariest things as camel training mentors is seeing so many people not be aware of the safety zones when training and handling camels. Unfortunately we see a lot of accidents happen, outside of our training courses, that could have easily been avoided. When a camel hurts you it’s never that the camel wants to hurt you, often it’s by accident and accidents do happen when a handler is not aware of the safety factors or gets complacent. For instance, maybe the camel gets a fright while you’re leading them and if you’re near their front legs when they run you can accidentally get kicked, because they have such long legs. So let’s get you feeling & being safe around camels.... let’s talk about how you can stay safe around camels.

We have a very special episode for you today because World Camel day is June 22nd (every year) and for us and many camel lovers world wide this is a great excuse to share the amazingness of these animals that we’ve fallen in love with. If you Google World Camel Day its offical explanation is to create awareness about the camel and its production of food, wool and transportation in many indigenous cultures, past and present. This particular podcast episode for World Camel Day we’re shaking it up a little and sharing heart-felt stories on how camels have changed individual people’s lives in ways that you couldn’t even dream up. We did a ‘call out’ for stories of people and how camel’s have changed their lives and the responses we got were completely heart warming to say the least. We read these stories out load in this episode to honour The Camel and their ability to help us feel at home in our own skin, the transformation that they can offer (consciously or unconsciously) and how they impact our day to day lives. You’ll leave this episode with your heart full and maybe even some tears shed (we know our eyes welled up during this episode). This is in appreciation and dedication of ALL camel lovers out there in the big wide world and of course the wonderful camels that impact (or shall we say ‘camel-pact’) our lives. Tune in now, you won’t want to miss this episode! A very Happy World Camel Day to you all and THANK YOU for being here with us to appreciate The Camel on World Camel Day!
