Bub is one of Davidson’s young male camels. She acquires him from the ranch that formerly belonged to Kurt. Bub does not like to lead but rather idolizes Dookie, whom he follows everywhere. At one point, Bub spooks and panics the other camels, and Davidson beats him in order to regain control. She feels terrible for her behavior and realizes how much trouble she has remaining calm during difficult situations.
