Mammal 1

Camel; the people of the Sahara use these animals for milk, meat, shade, and transportation. They also have a lot cooler body temperatures so they huddle together to stay cool. Camels are herbivores that are domesticated and fed dates, grass, wheat, and oats by their owners. They are very large, up to seven feet tall, with their very noticeable hump weighing in excess up to 1,600 lbs. Their tails are long and they're covered with thick, shaggy fur that can be from a dark brown color to almost white. Their feet, knees, and chest have thick, leathery pads to protect them. The young are called calfs or a git. They can run within hours of birth and start being trained to knell or stand at the age of one. They're able to carry a full load at the age of five. These mammals are at the top of the food chain.
