Camel Humps and Cameltoe - Aiyo, 'Hump Sap' Lorrrr
Ha Ha, some of you guys thought that I meant different type of ‘humps’ when I published my post on Camel – One Humps Or Two Humps?. I found out that Cameltoe is a slang with ‘xxx’ meaning when I was gathering information for my Camel post.
I do not wish to publish adult content here but if you want to find out the meaning of Cameltoe (Caution Adults only, sexual content, 'Hump Sap' Content!), you can check at your own risk at Wikipedia using this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cameltoe.
(Please note that I have no intention to offend any ladies)
Camel – One Hump and Two Humps?
This is Egyptian Camel The Camel is a very remarkable animal. Camel has several body characteristics that help them to adapt to the desert environment. Here are some of their characteristics. 1) The hump of a camel actually doesn’t store water. Fats are stored here and it can be converted to energy and water.
2) They can withstand severe changes in temperature, using efficient controls in their skins. In the day they may not sweat at all, therefore conserving water in their body.
3) Water vapor from their breath can be trapped by their nostrils and absorb back into their body.
4) Camel coats can reflect sunlight.
5) Camel red blood cell is oval in shaped and it will not rupture when they drink water excessively.
6) The structure of the camel feet and camel toe is suitable for walking on the loose and fine desert sand without sinking. Camels are even-toed ungulates and double- pulley joint bone structure gives them greater stability.
7) They can close their nostrils using their nose muscle and this is useful protection for the respiratory system during a sandstorm. (Ha Ha, I wish I could do that!)
Have you ever wonder why some camels have one humps and some have two humps? Arabian camel has one hump, known as Dromedary. Bactrian camels that are found in North Eastern Asia like Mongolia and China has two humps.
