There was someone a little out of the ordinary spotted wandering around a car park in limerick this afternoon.

Was there seriously a camel wandering around Limerick today...??

Yup, that's a camel. A Bactrian, judging by the double humps, which originate in central Asia.

There is reportedly a circus in the area so we assume he's done a runner from there. Although, it also looks like he could be a new hire for the Rubberbandits.

They weren't long moving on from that long-suffering horse.
