Camels are large, even-toed ungulates known for their distinctive humps, which store fat. They are well-adapted to arid environments, primarily found in deserts like the Sahara and Arabian Desert. Camels can go for long periods without water, making them essential for trade and transportation in harsh climates.
There are two main species of camels: the Dromedary, which has one hump, and the Bactrian, which has two. These animals are herbivores, primarily feeding on dry grasses and grains. Camels have a unique ability to regulate their body temperature, allowing them to thrive in extreme heat.
