Camels are not known for being the most well-tempered animals in the world. Still though, their abilities to survive harsh weather conditions make them a prized animal in countries all over the world. However, even camels have their environmental limits. There is only so much heat they can take before bad things start to happen.
Recently, Urjaram, a man from a village in Rajasthan, India, learned this lesson the hard way. His camel bit off his head after being left in the sweltering 123-degree Fahrenheit heat all day.
According to the local press, Urjaram had been entertaining guests when he remembered that he left his camel out in the heat with its legs tied up.
Urjaram went to untie its feet to move the animal to a cooler area, but that’s when things got ugly.
The camel picked up Urjaram, threw him, and then proceeded to chew off his head.
Apparently this wasn’t the first time this particular camel acted violently. It took 25 villagers six hours to finally calm down the camel enough to retrieve the body.

That has got the be the most horrific way to die ever. My thoughts go out to Urjaram’s family for their tragic loss.
