We are camels. The camel on the left is Camilla, a Puffkin made by Swibco. Next is Khufu, a Beanie Baby and next to him is another Beanie named Niles. Sir Humpsley is the big camel in the middle and is made by Boyds. He is retired. Camels with one hump are called Dromedary or Arabian camels. Camels with two humps are Bactrian. The camel all dressed up and ready for a caravan is Lawrence the Attic Treasure made by Ty Inc. And the little two-humped camel on the right is made by the Manhattan Toy Company and is part of their Critterology Series. The Camel shown below right is a Webkinz from Ganz. Webkinz Pets come alive on their very own website called www.webkinz.com. Check our Gift Shop to see if we have any camels. Camels belong to the family Camelidae. The suborder is Tylopoda, even-toed animals. They live in the deserts of Asia and Africa. A camel's stomach has three chambers. One of them is capable of holding up to a gallon of water. Camels are cud chewers. These animals have a reputation for having a bad disposition and have been known to bite and spit when annoyed. Camels mate throughout the year, having no particular breeding season. The gestation period is from 315 to 389 days. The Bactrian Camel ( (Camelus bactrianus) is from Asia. It measures 7 feet tall at its hump. The Dromedary or Arabian camel (Camelus Dromedarius) lives in the deserts of Arabia. Camels can live on very coarse and sparse vegetation and feed on thorny plants that other animals refuse. When there is plenty of food, they store the extra fat in their humps. Camels have been known to go without water for 17 days and survive.
