Wild animal tours can be awe-inspiring and fascinating, but that doesnt mean theyre full of majesty in any way, shape or form. - photo by Martha Ostergar
THE WILD ANIMAL PARK Open-vehicle tours at a wild animal park are a fun way to see animals living mostly like they would in the wild.

Sure, if youre me, all the animals hide and nap just when youre about to take the tour, but other people seem to have a great time, people who are truly experiencing awe and wonder.

If youre lucky and good with a recording device of some sort, you get to capture some true magic like the group of tourists did in this video.

No, they didnt see a lion roaring proudly as head of his pride. No, they didnt see a herd of giraffes running in long and oddly graceful strides. And, no, they didnt witness the miracle of an elephant giving birth. Instead they witnessed maybe the funniest thing the entire internet has ever seen a camel do.

I could describe here the camels splayed and knobby knees as it runs toward the vehicle that contains several people screaming and squealing with delight. I could also describe the camels bouncing head that looks more like a cartoon than real life. Lastly, I could describe the camels incredible flailing lips and mouth that is foaming more than a rabid dog. But I wont describe any of those things because its something you have to see yourself to truly appreciate.

As you watch this video, be prepared to almost immediately stop it and call everyone in your household together, so you can all have a hearty belly laugh in perfect harmony.

This video was first posted in 2013, but it is just now hitting its stride on the internet.
