Some years ago a aquantance of mine ,worked a a rabbit shooter on the Nullabour Plain ! He latter became a processor ! Which was probarly safer for all concerned ! He still livesout on the SA/WA boader as far as I know,but was one of these people if it's going to happen it happened to him !
Now Rabbit Shooters always had vehicles that the wind screens either folded down or they removed them so they could use the steering wheel as a rest when they shot . Poor Doug had been shooting one night & pulled up in the morning for a sleep .He layed across the front seat of his 4x4 & dozed off ,now he always had a small dog to keep him company .This day in the middle of nowhere the dog started barking & woke him, apon opening his eyes Doug finds himself looking eye to eye with a large bull camel that had stuck it's head in through the opening & into the cabin ! Doug not thinking very slowly pulled his legs up & kicked the beast in the head as hard as he could!!!! Of course bedlam followed with Doug claiming the Toyota was being thrown about like a boat in a storm ! To make matters worse he only had a .22lr to dispatch the creature with several shots in the Head at very close range !!!:-D :-D
