Where do camels live?

Answer 1

There are two types of camels in the world: the bactrian and Arabian. The bactrian camel has two humps and is found in the deserts of eastern and northern Asia, specifically the Gobi. The Arabian, as its name suggests, is found in Arabian deserts, and is the one hump variety. Few of these animals of either variety are found in the wild any longer.

Camels also roam the Australian deserts. They were imported to Australia to help with colonisation by transporting goods and people across the vast Australian deserts and plains. A task that horses struggled with because horses would sink into the sand or die of dehydration.

When roads, railway and motor transport was eventually established in Australia, the camels were released into the Australian wild.

A small herd of camels also exist in the US-Mexican deserts. They were imported by the United States during the US-Mexico war to help American troops transport supplies across the US-Mexican deserts. Again, a task which horses struggled with. The US troops were not used to riding or maintaining camels, so many escaped and roamed the wilderness.
Deserts-Egypt is one place where they are common.

the desert.

Answer 3

The almost 14 million dromedaries alive today are domesticated animals (mostly living in Somalia, Sudan, Mauritania and nearby countries).

The Bactrian camel once had an enormous range, but is now reduced to an estimated 1.4 million animals, mostly domesticated. It is thought that there are about 1000 wild Bactrian camels in the Gobi Desert in China and Mongolia.

There is a substantial feral population of dromedaries estimated at up to 700,000 in central parts of Australia, descended from individuals introduced as means of transport in the 19th century and early 20th century. This population is growing at approximately 11% per year and in recent times the state government of South Australia has decided to cull the animals using aerial marksmen, because the camels use too much of the limited resources needed by sheep farmers. For more information, see Australian feral camel.

A small population of introduced camels, dromedaries and Bactrians, survived in the Southwest United States until the 1900s. These animals, imported from Turkey, were part of the US Camel Corps experiment and used as draft animals in mines, and escaped or were released after the project was terminated. A descendant of one of these was seen by a backpacker in Los Padres National Forest in 1972. Twenty-three Bactrian camels were brought to Canada during the Cariboo Gold Rush.
