The animal known as the “Ship of the Desert” is the camel. This nickname stems from the camel's remarkable ability to travel across arid desert landscapes, often covering long distances without needing much water. Camels are well-adapted to harsh conditions, with features such as specialized feet that prevent sinking in sand, the ability to tolerate high temperatures, and unique adaptations for conserving water. There are two main species of camels: the one-humped dromedary and the two-humped Bactrian camel. They have historically served as crucial means of transport and sources of food and raw materials for various cultures inhabiting desert regions.
