TITLED: Bactrain Camel
(Camelus bactrainus)
The Bactrian camel (Camelus bactrianus) is a large, even-toed ungulate native to the steppes
of Central Asia. The Bactrian camel has two humps on its back, in contrast to the single-humped
dromedary camel. Its population of two million exists mainly in the domesticated form.
The domesticated Bactrian camel has served as a pack animal in inner Asia since ancient
times. With its tolerance for cold, drought, and high altitudes, it enabled the travel of caravans
on the Silk Road. A small number of feral Bactrian camels still roam the Mangystau Province
of southwest Kazakhstan and the Kashmir Valley in India. Feral herds of Bactrian camels
existed during the late 19th century in the southwest deserts of the United States.
