That's why two types of camels exist: one for hot deserts, one for

looking at, when you are looking at a camel. Or so I have been told.

Huh.  I wasn't aware of that distinction.  I recall reading
that the U.S. Army experimented with camels for use in the
Southwest, and abandoned the project for some reason.

And way back when... there was a TV western where Our Hero
rode a bactrian (two hump) camel.  Not that I expect the
TV people to get this right, but did the Army try to use
the wrong kind of camel?
