Fun Facts

The dromedary camel is capable of drinking 100 L (30 gal.) of water in just 10 minutes.

Dromedary Camels can tolerate water loss equal to over 30% of their body weight.

Camels store fat in the hump, not water. They are born without a hump because the layer of fat does not develop until they eat solid food.

Dromedary Camels may browse for 6 to 8 hours every day.

Unlike most mammals, a healthy camel's body temperature fluctuates throughout the day from 34°C to 41.7°C (93°F to 107°F.) This fluctuation is important because it allows the camel to conserve water by not sweating as the environmental temperature rises.

The dromedary camel is no longer considered a wild animal. In Africa and Arabia it is a semi-domesticated animal that free ranges but is under the control of herders.

Dromedary Camels may be occasionally preyed upon by wolves.
