A frustrated camel in India was beaten to death after killing its owner and severing his head.
Owner Sohanram Nayak tried to recapture the animal after it broke free from its rope constraints, trying to chase down another camel.

In a video that has since gone viral online, at least six people with sticks are then seen striking the camel, which they tied to a tree in Panchu village, Bikaner, in Rajasthan state.
The camel was made an official State Animal in 2014 to support wider bids, including the 2016 Camel Development Scheme, to protect the animal’s numbers in Rajasthan.
