Where is the Humane Society?

Sometimes I come across a problem which I have never encountered. Not even read about.

How about this?

Thousands of camels in Australia’s remote Outback could be killed by marksmen in helicopters under a government proposal aimed at cutting down the population of the havoc-wreaking creatures.

First introduced into Australia in the 1840s to help explorers travel through the Australian desert, there are now about 1 million camels roaming the country. They compete with sheep and cattle for food, trample vegetation and invade remote settlements in search of water, scaring residents as they tear apart bathrooms and rip up water pipes.

I have no idea if I were Mayor, how I would handle destructive roaming camels.

It doesn’t sound like the Humane Society is of much help.
