Shooting camels and hunting them seems to me to be totally diff shooting a camel seems to me the same as hunting cows in a pasture and not much of a challenge but could be a fun vacation and if i ever did get tired of hunting black bear, mule deer, white-tailed deer, elk, big horn sheep, moose, grizzly, and mountain goats well then i guess i might venture over to shoot a camel but i never see that day in my future but if so i would take the 300 ultra mag have yet to find anything it won't put down
to camel or not to camel

Mmmmm Camel. Tastes like antelope, with a little decomposing opossum thrown in...
I hunt for meat. There's no difference between food standing still, and food on the run. (Except that food on the run will have an adrenaline taint to it.)
If I could hunt the wild horses here, I would. They're tasty, and just as challenging as elk.

Franknmauser- Move to Nevada. There is a huge battle between the horse lovers and the cattlemen....
Yummy camel
Lived in Kazakhstan for awhile and ate camel meat and tried camel milk. Camel meat is delicious. The milk had a fresh taste with no fatty cow milk film left in the mouth. Kazakhs ranch camel the way Americans ranch horses and cattle.
A poster commented on the smelliness of camel meat. Fresh camel meat does not have an offensive smell at all, it is rather neutral. But, I will swear that the world's worst animal smell is a live camel 1 kilometer upwind of your nose.

Back in '96, while on temporary duty in Saudi Arabia, we got a new Lieutenant in the unit. On the way back to the compound we passed a camel herd running in the desert. One of the camels had a blue rag or sash tied around it's hind quarters.
The Lt asked me what the rag was for. (I did not have a clue. The only thing I knew about camels were they stunk and are uglier than my sister-in-law!) I told him it was a form of birth control used by the Bedouins and what happened was when the camel went to mount the female, the sash slid down his hind quarters, covering his penis so it would prevent the copulation.
About a week later the site commander came up to me and asked where in the heck I got the story about the camel birth control? Apparently our young Lt was in a meeting when a visiting colonel asked about a camel he saw with the rag on its' backside and the Lt immediately impressed the colonel with his understanding of local animal birth control.
I told the commander I had made it up on the drive in and did not have a clue. I told him that from my training I thought NCO's were supposed to have an answer for officers when they asked a question. He said "Yeah, but you better have the truthful answer for me when I ask you a question."
I never did find out what the rag/sash tied around the camels back quarters really was for, but seeing the subject made me smile and think of our lieutenant.

The trouble with camels is they are like sponges. Except for the hump they are all air. Ever try to kill a sponge? What kind of gun is used to hunt sponges? Now I know, live sponges are filled with water, not air but the principle is the same.
When I was a youngster we tried hunting manatees. Didn't work. Dogs drowned.

Make it challenging, use a two person camel costume and a .500 S&W!
