This clears a few things up. They don't attack camels.
So this explain those bites!

Don't handle what you can't handle!
Sometimes you don't know you are handling something until it is too late.

Reminds me of this incident last summer. I was driving home from Maine and we stopped for a coffee. As we were getting ready to leave i felt something on the small of my back under my shirt. It felt like a wood chip or pebble, something like that.

Anyways I reached back, grabbed it and pulled out a very alive and angry hornet! Luckly i had him by the back and he couldn't reach me with his stinger and the window was open so I was able to quickly chuck him out.

For the next 250 miles I kept imagining i felt another one moving around under my clothes.
