THE DROMEDARY CAMEL

camel



















The dromedary camel from the SAHARA desert is couple of drinking 100 litres of water in just 10 minutes.
Camels we domesticated by human 5000 years ago.  


what camels eat

camels will eat just about anything as it is very hard to find food. They eat plants, dried leaves, seeds, bones, fish meat and even leather.
Camels can go for a long time without food and water, which is how they survive in deserts!
While they don’t do it very often, camels can swim.


A camel is an even-toed ungulate within the genus Camelus, bearing distinctive fatty deposits known as "humps" on its back. The two surviving species of camel are the dromedary, or one-humped camel, which is native to the Middle East and the Horn of Africa; and the Bactrian, or two-humped camel, which inhabits Central Asia
