Description
Just like in nature, the Schleich® Wild Life dromedary has only one hump. It is also known as the one-humped camel.
Dromedaries live in the deserts of Africa and Asia. They feed mainly on leaves, dry grasses, and thorny plants. The hump of these mammals is not used to store water, but fat. In the desert, they can go several weeks without finding food. The Schleich® Wild Life dromedary has been eating a lot lately, as evidenced by its full, upright hump.
Funny detail
During a sandstorm, dromedaries close their nostrils to prevent sand from entering them.
