I was on a camel group for awhile plus worked with llamas which are in the same family and similar but camels though domesticated a long time remain a little wilder.

1st problem never(unless it means life or death for the baby) bottle feed a camelid. They imprint on what raises them. One male where I worked the mistake was made of letting it nurse off a goat that allowed. Was cute and funny, till he grew up. Always trying to mount the goats and fight with the male goats. He had to be sent to a goatless home. Many of the neutered males still mount but they mount other of their species unless imprinted.

2nd is you don't want an intact male camel unless you have experience with the species already. They are among many species that go seasonally crazy with hormones.

Camels are fairly common in AU(here a camel is more expensive than a llama because llamas are more common) and they probably didn't think to much of it. Like someone getting a cow as a 'pet' They think of sweet Bettys farm cow but it's not reality or that simple they are big and can be dangerous too.

And donkeys can be nuts too. Working with mini donkeys at one show we only had two out at a time so the rest get restless and want out. I did a noon check of waters and clean ect. and was about to go out the gate but they were shoving around wanting out. I shoed them back then started to open the gate and they rushed up and the really crazy one jumped on me. Front legs over my shoulders. I think a combo of the others crowded around me and holding the gate kept me up or it could have been very bad.

Once she was off of me I just climbed the fence instead and did so from then on till we moved on.

All big animals can be dangerous.
