Baby camel who was torn from mother and drugged at zoo is rescued

A camel which was separated from its mother and drugged in order to join a travelling petting zoo is now living a carefree life - after being rescued by an attorney. Concerned Rob Heering, 58, spotted two-month-old Sheik being sedated by an employee at a fair in West Palm Beach, Florida. He asked if the camel was unwell and the employee admitted the syringe contained a sedative to stop it hiding from visitors at the back of the enclosure. Rob also noticed the camel was too young to be apart from his mother, as calves typically nurse for between six to nine months.
