The baby camel story (6/8): Disheveled

This is a series of eight images taken in less than two minutes of an event involving a baby camel and its mother. We couldn’t really figure out just what happened, but it was interesting to watch the reactions of the mother camel and the handler, as well as those of the Saudis at the end.

Then the most unusual thing happened: Out of the corner of my eye I saw the handler flying through the air, like he had been pushed by somebody or something. Maybe the mama camel got tired of him taking her baby away from her. He is rearranging himself here.

Mama's profile reminds me of Alfred Hitchcock. LOL! Nicely captured interactions. Voted.
