List of the Characteristics of Arabian Camels

Arabian camels are known for several characteristics that make them one of the most adaptable and resilient animals. Notable characteristics include:

The camel's digestive system converts food into transfats stored in the camel's hump.

Excess water drank by the Arabian camel is stored in the tissues of the abdominal wall.

When water and food are not sufficiently available for camels, they can recover food and water thanks to rumination and use them for survival.

Camels' split lips enable them to eat any accessible thorny plant.

Camels can moisturize dry plants they feed on thanks to salivary glands in their long necks.

Camels' thick skin helps them reduce harm resulting from insect stings and maintain an appropriate body temperature.

Camels have clear eyesight, even during sandstorms, thanks to their transparent eyelids. Their long lashes help protect their eyes.

Camels have few sweat glands, thus reducing water loss and maintaining blood thinning amidst high temperatures.

Camels can adapt their body temperature to the weather. Camels are warm-blooded animals. Their normal body temperature is forty-two degrees Celsius in daytime and thirty-four degrees Celsius during nighttime.

Camels' oxygen consumption is low amidst high temperatures, thus reducing metabolism and preventing their body temperature rise.
