Joe the Camel

Maryland Zoo at Baltimore

Joe DID NOT like me –
hissed while I was trying to take pictures and after this last one –
he tried “spitting/snorting” on me (if that is the proper term for a camel) –
Luckily I was far enough away from him that he couldn’t reach me!
Just hope I didn’t spook the poor woman riding him!

Maybe he used to belong to Al Queda.

Looks like the other Joe is having tantrums too :^)
There are really days like these...

lol!
They are nasty nasty creatures. Glad you were able to get out of spits way.

Joe's guide doesn't look too happy either! Maybe, they are both dehydrated!

He's probably having a nicotine fit so don't take it personally. Nice shot.

I'll bet he just needed a cigarette.
