Though the men tried to treat Old Douglas like a horse, the camel was known to break free of any tether, and was eventually allowed to graze freely. Despite not being tied up, he never wandered far from the men. The Infantry's horses feared Old Douglas, and he is recorded to have spooked one horse into starting a stampede, which reportedly injured many, and possibly killed one or two horses."']](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6pcsbzmxau2cra5mrunayp5f/bafkreidlrja3ndopgsqbjikv5xhywu7rpamwq3dp72ij3nmoqqbxhb7e54)
