Most of the animals that live in the deserts have adapted to the desert life very well. All desert dwellers have adapted to conserve water, food and energy. The camel is an example. The camel is one of the best survivors in the desert.
A 5-year-old camel can carry a full load. Camels can go for days or even weeks with little or no food or water. Desert people feed their camels dates, grass, and such grains as wheat and oats. In zoos, the animals eat hay and dry grains--about 3.5 kilograms of each every day. When a camel travels across the desert, food may be hard to find. The animal may have to live on dried leaves, seeds, and whatever desert plants it can find. A camel can eat a thorny twig without hurting its mouth. The lining of the mouth is so tough that the sharp thorns cannot push through the skin.
