The camel belongs to the family Camelidae. The one-humped species is the dromedary, and the two-humped species is the Bactrian. A raised hump stores fat that the body can use for energy. Camels drink quickly and can take up to 100 liters of water at a time. Their top speed can reach about 65 km/hr in short bursts. Wide padded feet keep them from sinking into sand. Long double eyelashes and closing nostrils protect against dust. Body temperature can vary from 34 to 41 °C to save water. They tolerate 25% dehydration better than most mammals. A camel’s milk is rich and high in vitamin C. Typical lifespan is about 40–50 years. A female’s gestation lasts about 13 months. People use camels for transport, caravans, riding, and loads. Camels graze and also browse dry shrubs when food is scarce. In many cultures the camel is a symbol of endurance and patience.
