CAMELS
My topic is camels. They are amazing animals. They have tree stomachs. A camel is an animal with a hump. In their humps, they store fat, not water. Fat is a source of energy when food is scarce. They chew their cud like cows. Camels don’t need water very much. Camels may not drink water up to six months. A thirsty camel can drink 100 liters of water in 10 minutes. In addition to their humps, camels have other ways to adapt to their environment. They have a third, clear eyelid that protects their eyes from blowing sand. Two rows of long lashes also protect their eyes. Sand up the nose can be a problem, but not for camels. They can shut their nostrils during sand storms. They are mostly in brown colors. The camel is one of the oldest domesticated animals. People have been using them for more than 10,000 years. They are generally used for their milk, hides and wool; but -especially- they are being used for transportation. For this reason, they are being called as “ships of the desert”. Did you know that baby camels are born without a hump? There are two types of camels: Dromedary camels, and Bactrian camels. The dromedary camel has one hump and long legs and it lives in the desert of Arabia and Africa. The Bactrian camel has two humps and a very thick coat and it lives in Asia in areas that are mostly grasslands. Camels love to stay in groups. The groups are being called as herds. The herds are led by a dominant male. Camels are very social and like to greet each other by blowing in each other's faces. To sum up, I love these amazing animals. I think they are miracles of God.
