Painting Fake Eyes on Camels to Protect from Predators

Fake Eye Painting Helps in Scaring Predators Away

My friend and fellow camel scientist and herder, Dr. Piers Simpkin, shared a video of his camels painted with fake eyes to protect them from lions. Some of his best camels were hunted by lions this year.  According to Piers, it was not his idea, but he saw it on the cattle on a neighboring ranch and did some research on it in Southern Africa.

Looking Forward

I can’t wait for the results and outcomes. I’m in contact with Dr. Piers, as soon as I hear good news, I’ll let you know.

Please enrich my work with your feedback.
