BERLIN – A 54-year-old man was hospitalized in northern Germany after being bitten in front of a camel, police said on Monday.

An employee of the Perleberg Zoo, located between Berlin and Hamburg, was cleaning the camel’s shell on Sunday morning and feeding the animals when one of them suddenly turned around and bit them, police said.

Police described the injuries as “serious” and said the man, whose name was not released, was being treated at a local hospital.

The zoo is currently closed under German coronavirus blocking restrictions.
