Details for Camel

• Camel

  Camels are large, even-toed ungulates known for their distinctive fatty humps (one or two), which store fat for energy and water. Two main species exist: the Dromedary Camel (Camelus dromedarius) with one hump, native to the Middle East and North Africa, and the Bactrian Camel (Camelus bactrianus) with two humps, native to Central Asia. Camels are exceptionally well-adapted to desert environments, able to withstand extreme temperatures and go for long periods without water. They are herbivores, grazing on desert vegetation, and have been vital domesticated animals for transport and resources for millennia.
