Woman bites a camel's genitals to escape after animal sat on her

(The Advocate) - A Florida woman was forced to bite a camel's genitals to escape after the animal sat on her at the Tiger Truck Stop when she ran into its enclosure chasing her deaf dog.

Authorities say the woman was chasing after her loose dog when she was attacked by the animal at a truck stop. The camel was spooked by the wandering dog and woman chasing it.

While inside, the camel sat on the woman and she bit the animal, a male dromedary, to get it off of her.

The woman said, "I bit his balls to get him off of me, I bit his testicles to get him off of me."

An investigation found that the couple had provoked the camel before it sat on the woman. "The camel did nothing wrong. They (the couple) were aggressive. The camel was just doing its normal routine."

The truck stop keeps a camel named Caspar and for many years controversially kept a tiger for visitors to see on-site. The couple stopped at the truck stop to let the dog out.

Authorities didn't find reasons to hold the truck stop liable for their injuries because the camel was enclosed and signs warning visitors to stay out are posted every 10 feet along the fence.

Deputies cited the couple for a leash law violation and criminal trespassing.

State laws prohibit people from letting their dogs run free on enclosed or unenclosed private property.
