Did You Know a Camel’s Hump Isn’t Made of Bone?
11Most people think camel humps are either filled with water or are part of the camel’s skeleton — but the truth is way more fascinating. A camel’s hump is actually a massive reserve of fat, not bone or water. This fat acts as an energy storage system, helping camels survive long journeys through the harsh desert without food. Instead of storing fat throughout their bodies like other animals, camels concentrate it in their humps, keeping the rest of their body cooler and better adapted to the heat. So next time you see that tall, proud hump, just remember — it’s a natural survival backpack! Amazing, right?
