Honestly? I can't think of anything. The Bible doesn't shy away from frank descriptions of some nasty stuff, but I can't think of any instances of camel lovin'.

I'd say Loth's daughters getting him drunk and then raping him to get pregnant is arguably more uncomfortable than fucking a camel.

I'll see your incest and raise you dismemberment of a corpse. Young Levite tosses his concubine out into the street where she gets gang raped and left to die, which she does the next morning. He cuts her body into 12 pieces and sends one piece to each of the tribes.

That's a nice one too.

Why did he do that?

Because he was angry. All the Israelites gathered and fought the benjamintes, and destroyed the city, and killed ask the women. They also promised never to let their daughters marry a benaminite.
However, then some smart people realized they actually needed all 12 tribes so that encouraged the remaining benaminites to kidnap some women to marry. This saved them from extinction but it the tribe always stayed small.

The Levite and his concubine (could have been a lesser wife since polygamy was allowed and her father supported the relationship) were staying with an elderly man in Gibeah. The men of the town came to the house and demanded the old man give them his male guests (the Levite and his servant) to sexually abuse. He wouldn't but tossed out his virgin daughter and the concubine instead. The Levite sends parts of his concubine to the tribes to shake them up out of their moral lassitude. (But let's not ignore the fact he himself did this despicable, reprehensible thing himself in allowing a woman in his care to be abused like this.)

To send a visceral, grisly message about the Benjaminites' crime. He could say what they did in a letter, but that doesn't have the same impact without a visual aid. And since it was several thousand years before the first camera...

Arguably; I guess that one's subjective.

It may depend on the camel in question.

Lot‘s daughters, and it is explicitly condemned.

Who the hell is Loth? Sloths brother?
