Camels can run at speeds up to 40 miles per hour for short amounts of time. They usually travel 25 miles a day at 3 miles per hour. Camels are mammals. Camels are herbivores meaning they eat mostly greens and vegetation. Camels eat grass, grains, seeds, twigs and even plants with thorns. Camels have thick lips which allow them to eat the thorny plants without getting hurt. Camels three sets of eyelids with two rows of eyelashes.

A camel can go a week or more without water, and they can last for several months without food. They can drink up to 32 gallons (46 litres) of water at one drinking session! 2. Camels store fat in the hump, not water.The fat can be metabolised for energy. 3. Unlike most mammals, a healthy camel's body temperature fluctuates (changes) throughout the day from 34Â°C to 41.7Â°C (93Â°F-107Â°F.) This allows the camel to conserve water by not sweating as the environmental temperature rises.amels store fat in the hump, not water. The fat can be metabolised for energy. 3.
