The camel is a large, strong desert
animal. Camels can travel great distances across hot, dry deserts with little
food or water. They walk easily on soft sand and carry people and heavy hump.
The hump is a large lump of fat providing energy if food is hard to find.
There are two chief kinds of
camels: (1) the Arabian camel also loads to places that have no roads. Camels
also serve the people of the desert in many other ways. The camel carries its
own built-in food supply on its back in the form of a called dromedary, which
has one hump, and (2) Bactrian camel, which has two humps.
