Camels protect themselves from predators by regurgitating their stomach contents mixed with saliva in a projectile fashion. This practice is commonly referred to as spitting. According to the San Diego Zoo, when camels spit, it is meant to startle and distract potential predators.
Camels are grazers, similar to sheep or goats, and consume most kinds of vegetation that cross their path. They are able to consume both soft vegetable matter, such as leaves, and hard woody twigs. They also opportunistically eat things like leather and other scraps. Farmed camels are fed dates, wheat, grass and oats. Camels kept in zoos are fed hay.
