This camel desperately needed a pair of shoes. A cobbler came to his rescue
Timujin, the 27-year-old Bactrian camel, needed shoes to ease pain from stretched tendons
It's far from typical for a camel to sport shoes around the yard, but then again, it's far from typical for a camel to be trotting around the United Kingdom.
So when cobbler Stuart Moss got a call from a woman named Lady Chichester about making a shoe for a camel, he thought it couldn't possibly be real.
"I thought it was one of my friends trying to, you know, prank call me or something," Moss told As It Happens host Nil Köksal.
"The further we got into the conversation, I then realized she was, you know, deadly serious. And Timujin the camel had a bit of a problem."
