camel

camel

noun

A camel is a big animal that lives in the desert. It has a very long neck and one or two humps on its back. Camels can store a lot of water in their bodies, which helps them survive in the hot and dry desert. They also have thick and hairy feet that help them walk on sand without sinking. Camels are often used by people in the desert to carry heavy things like food, water, and supplies. They are very strong and can travel long distances without needing to rest or drink water.

 

Example

  1. The camel is often called the "ship of the desert" because it can carry heavy loads across long distances.
  2. Camels have a unique ability to survive in the harsh and dry conditions of the desert.
  3. The hump on a camel's back stores fat, not water, which provides energy when food and water are scarce.
