Camel blocking traffic doesn't care about your afternoon plans

This camel will eat grass where it damn well pleases.

A camel has literally stopped traffic in Ireland.

Killian Burns was on his way to Dublin to watch the Kerry versus Mayo Gaelic football match on Saturday when he hit a wall of traffic. A camel of all things was munching away at grass with its body smack in the middle of on-coming traffic.

Yep, just chilling in the middle of the road completely unconcerned with the long line of cars piling up behind it.

Burns took out his phone to record the peculiar sight. In the video, a man runs over and leads the camel out of harm's way.

Burns then pans his phone to a field next to the road where there appears to be a circus set up.

Another Twitter user shared a photograph of his son posing in front of the same stately creature.

This camel is clearly too cool for humans.
