SANDUSKY, Ohio (WWJ) -- A couple of camels got loose at Cedar Point, Tuesday evening, causing a bit of a stir at the Sandusky, Ohio, amusement park.
Video. shared to TikTok and Reddit, shows two dromedary camels on the midway near the petting zoo, one of them approaching some lockers with a view of the Millennium Force roller coaster.
"Nope, nope, this is not good; this is not good!" exclaimed one witness, shooting some video while one of the camels, which appeared to be a bit spooked, was jumping around in front of a person in an electric wheelchair.
"He's like asserting his dominance or something."

In a statement to WWJ Newsradio 950, Cedar Point spokesman Tony Clark said the camels "decided to take an unplanned stroll just outside their home at The Barnyard," which is the park's petting zoo area on the Frontier Trail.
Clark said the camels were quickly returned to their enclosure, and that park officials are looking into how the animals made it to the midway.
No one was hurt.
