Camels are large, desert-dwelling herd animals noted for their stamina and ill tempers. A typical camel stands about 6 feet at the shoulder and 7 feet at the hump. They have long, curved necks and powerful, muscular legs that allow them to traverse the harsh terrain of the desert. Their thick, shaggy coats protect them from the scorching sun and sandstorms. Camels are also known for their ability to store fat in their humps, which they can use as a source of energy when food and water are scarce. These unique adaptations make camels well-suited for life in the desert. However, their ill tempers can make them difficult to handle, and they are known to spit and kick when provoked. Despite this, camels have been domesticated for thousands of years and are used by humans for transportation, milk, and meat. They are truly remarkable creatures that have adapted to survive in one of the harshest environments on Earth.
