Camels in the Outback | Kratts Creatures

Come along with the Kratt brothers as they explain why camels are the perfect animals for travel in the dry and rugged terrain of the outback because of their "special equipment". This video explains that camels are equipped with wide feet that keep them from sinking into loose sand and long legs that can carry them great distances. Camels also have the ability to eat plants with thorns, to drink up to twenty-five gallons of water in one sitting, and store fat to keep them alive.
