two-hump camel

The Bactrian camel has two humps on its back. It can survive well in cold regions.

Bactrian camels mainly live in the cold deserts and steppes of Central Asia. They can store more nutrients in their two humps, allowing them to withstand the cold.

Bactrian camels have a remarkable ability to survive in extreme cold down to -40 degrees Celsius. In Mongolia and Central Asia, they traditionally feature prominently in camel races and festivals.

Recently, Bactrian camel trekking has gained popularity as a form of sustainable tourism and ecotourism. Camel trips in the Gobi Desert or the Mongolian steppes, in particular, are popular among young travelers as a unique cultural experience.
