BBC carried the story. These camels too were imported and somehow escaped into the wild.Randyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02908010960752449161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31383424.post-40079779797432914772011-02-12T08:46:24.444-07:002011-02-12T08:46:24.444-07:00North America used to have a large native camel po...North America used to have a large native camel population, before humans arrived 13,000 years ago and hunted them to extinction. The camels that arrived in the 19th century escaped and survived in the wilds in pockets until the early 20th century, but the immediate reaction ranchers had on seeing one was to shoot it.
