How to train a camel

A camel is a highly intelligent animal and can learn quickly with the right handling. It’s intelligence can equal that of a eight to ten year old child and can easily outwit the handler. It’s often being described as dangerous, unpredictable and stubborn but with the right handling can be the most reliable companion. They can learn quickly and can be trained in a day. They learn verbal commands and when trained will never forget. I find them the most reliable transport in the world. Without the right handling the camel will quickly put a cruel handler in their place.

Interesting video Luke, now I see why they were called " Ships of the desert" . Because a shit load of rope work is involved handling them.😊

Can you do the same with the bactrian camel?

[@lukecampbelladventures]

Haven't met one yet but I guess it would work similar

[@Arabianrednecks]

Mate, really fascinating, I know that each camel is different, but to your experience, how many sessions does it take for camels to accept the saddle without the growling

[@lukecampbelladventures]

Most take it pretty quick, some are talkers over dramatic but most are good

[@Arabianrednecks]

@@lukecampbelladventures to your experience, do you think its more productive to do work more frequency, or less frequency more hours?
