About Camels

Now, central Australia is home to the last remaining herds of wild camels in the world. Australia even exports camels back to the Middle East.

Before you try and convince your parents to buy you one, you'll need to know that Camels can live for up to 50 years, weigh from 250 to 680kgs and grow to be over 2 metres tall!!

A female is a cow, a male is a bull and a baby is a calf.

When calves are born they weigh 30-40kgs but by the time they're adults, they weigh around 500-600kgs. They get to this size at 6-7 years but can live up to 50 years. Calves remain close to their mother until they are around 5 years old.

The camel's nickname "Ships of the Desert" comes from their walk. Like a giraffe, the camel moves both legs on one side of its body at the same time, then the other side. The rolling motion resembles a ship at sea.

Camel wool is of high quality and is used in the Arab world for rug-making and clothing. A camel sheds around 2kgs of wool every time they moult.

Camels can be milked, but the flavour is an acquired taste. Dairy herds are kept in parts of the Middle East.

Llamas are very closely related to camels. In fact a camel cross llama was bred in Dubai in 1997. It was called Rama the Cama.
