Answer 2

       

1 For thousands of years, the camel has helped people live in the deserts of Asia and Africa. It can travel great distances over hot sands for days without water. It can carry a person or a load of freight. For this reason, it is sometimes called the “ship of the desert”.

2 The camel supplies food and many valuable materials to desert dwellers. These people can live for many weeks on thick, cheesy camel’s milk and on the meat of young camels. Desert dwellers make camel’s hair into tents, blankets, rugs, clothing, and rope and cord. Dried camel droppings supply fuel for cooking fires. When a camel dies, its hide is used for making sandals, water bags, and many other necessities.

3 There are two kinds of camels. The dromedary, or Arabian, camel has a single hump on its back. The Asian camel has two humps. The dromedary once roamed wild but is now found only in domestication. Groups of them, however, are often left on their own for up to five months. The Asian camel is primarily a domesticated animal, but small wild herds are still found in areas of Mongolia and China. Only about 300 to 500 Asian camels still live in a wild state, so the species is considered in danger of extinction. 

4 Although often ill tempered, the camel is wonderfully adapted for the work it has to do. No other animal can live and work on such scant supplies of food and water in so hot and dry a climate.

5 One of the few things that a camel will do on command is kneel. It is easier for a person to climb onto or load up the animal when it kneels. The camel seldom works without a protest. The uproar in a camel yard when a caravan is being loaded is deafening.

6 The camel’s most striking feature is the large hump or humps on its back. The hump is formed of fat and muscle. When a camel is well fed and given enough water, the hump is erect. If the camel has to go without food and water for a period of time, the hump becomes limp and leans to one side.

7 The camel’s body is covered with a shaggy, sand-colored coat. The hair sheds in great handfuls, giving the animal a perpetually frowsy look. Long eyelashes protect the eyes from sandstorms and the glare of the desert sun.
