‘1000-Lb Sisters’ Amy Slaton’s Camel Bite Revealed as Her Family Reacts to Gruesome Photo****
1000-Lb Sisters star Amy Slaton‘s camel bite was finally revealed—along with her family members’ reactions to the gruesome photo—in a new clip shared by TLC.
In a sneak peek the network shared with Parade from the April 29 episode of 1000-Lb Sisters, fans can see the show’s first look at the injury Amy suffered at Tennessee Safari Park in Alamo, Tenn.
The clip showed Amy’s older brother, Chris Combs, and his wife Brittany Combs, receiving a concerning text from Amy that read, “got bit by a camel, going to ER.”
“How does a b—h get bit by a camel?!’ an incredulous Chris exclaimed.
Additionally, Amy, 37, sent a graphic image of the flesh wound on her arm.
“It bit her down to the white meat, and that ain’t no bulls–t,” Chris pointed out. “Just took a big plug out of her arm.”
He added, “Fatty tissue is hangin’ and danglin’,” before bursting out laughing and asking Brittany, “I wonder how mad she is that a camel bit her tattoo and messed it up?”
After Chris hopped on a group call with three of his sisters—Misty, Amanda and Tammy—the Slaton siblings further weighed in on the zoo mishap.
Misty echoed, “How do you get bit by a camel?!”
In a confessional with producers, Tammy shared, “At first I thought she was, like, joking. You did what? Amy goes to the damn zoo and gets bit by a camel.”

On Sept. 2, 2024, Amy and her boyfriend, Brian Lovvorn, were arrested for “illegal possession of Schedule I, illegal possession of Schedule VI, and two counts of child endangerment” after the alleged camel bite.
Deputies arrived at the scene and “were immediately overtaken by suspicious odors” coming from Amy’s vehicle, according to a news release from the Crockett County Sheriff’s Department.
Police reportedly “found psychedelic mushrooms and marijuana in her car” and two kids, per TMZ. Amy and Lovvorn were booked and released from jail the following day on $10,000 bonds.
In December, Amy pleaded guilty to simple possession of Schedule I and Schedule VI drugs, the Los Angeles Times reported. As a result, she received a suspended sentence of 11 months and 29 days, including time served—on the condition that she completes parenting classes, a drug and alcohol assessment, pays $1,000 in fines and remains “no contact” with the zoo.
