Scope and Content This camel market is where camels are traded, rather in the way that cattle might be traded in the West. Like cattle, camels are bred for their meat and their milk. Unlike cattle, they can also provide transport for humans. A camel is an even-toed ungulate (hoofed creature) with distinctive fatty deposits (humps) on its back. There are two separate species of camel. The dromedary (seen here) is native to Arabia and West Asia and has a single hump, while the bactrian has two humps and is native to Central and East Asia.
