A camel can live for many days in the desert without water. Camel riding is the
most popular method of travel in the desert. That is why the camel is called the ‘ship of
the desert’.

Camels have hump on their backs. The Arabian camel which is commonly found
in the Sahara Desert has only one hump. However, the camels in Western Asia have two
humps. Camels store fats in their humps. This fat changed into food and energy for the
camels when they have no food or water while travelling in the desert. This is how
camels can live for very long periods without food and water. When they do drink, they
can take as much as 50 gallons of water at one time to make up for all the water they lost
during their travels in the desert. This amount is equal to about 500 glasses of water.

Baby camels take about five years to grow to the size of their parents. Camels
have special fur to keep them warm in winter and cool in summer. No other animals so
specially suited to living in the desert as a camel.
