The sudden clanging of the camels’ bells wakes me. I open my eyes in the black of night, fighting off the haze of sleep, struggling to remember the orientation of my camp. Where are my camels tied? I feel the cold barrel of the rifle resting against my body as I scramble for my head torch.
 
Something has disturbed my five camels, making them all stand up in sudden fear. Before I can grasp a light I hear an unmistakable sound: a deep guttural burbling resonating through the night, eerily like the draining of a kitchen sink. Instantly I snap wide awake, grab the rifle, and leap up at a million miles an hour.
