CAMEL

The camel is a group of two species of even-toed, ungulate ruminating mammals of the family Camelidae characterised by the absence of horns, the possession of incisor, canine and molar teeth, a fissure in the upper lip, a long and arched neck, one or two humps or protuberances on the back (the Arab camel has one hump, the Asian or Bactrian Camel, two), and a broad elastic foot which does not readily sink into the sand of the desert.
