Text, Questions & Answers

Camels are fascinating creatures! They have humps on their backs. One-humped camels are called Dromedaries, while two-humped ones are called Bactrians. But guess what? Those humps aren't filled with water. They store fat, which provides energy when food is hard to find. Camels have long legs to keep their bodies away from hot desert sand. They drink up to 40 gallons of water at once, and can close their nostrils in sandstorms! Now you know why camels are perfect for deserts.
