Camels
have lived in some of the most desolate corners of our planet, and not
only do they live, they thrive. Most large animals are unable to
survive in these kinds of desolate places. This is because of their
large requirement for resources such as food and water. Camels are able
to use this to their advantage as a survival strategy.

This is the creation of Allah: the camel Camel11

Allah
almighty had supported this animal with some characteristics to enable
it to live in desert in unbearable circumstances. The question is why
the nature or coincidence did support that animal with these
characteristics and didn't support the others!!!?

Camels
can travel long distances which allow them to take advantage of the
maximum number of resources. They can withstand a massive amount of
dehydration which allows them to survive not only between watering
holes, but sometimes between seasons. For food, camels are omnivorous.
They can eat almost anything be it vegetation, meat, or bone, -- salty
or sweet, a camels stomach knows no limits.

Look at this beautiful creation, when we see that we have to remember Allah's saying: (Say:
"Have ye seen (these) 'Partners' of yours whom ye call upon besides
God? Show me what it is they have created in the (wide) earth. Or have
they a share in the heavens?)(Sûrat Fatir- verse40)

General Characteristics of the camel

The
camel's body Length is 300 cm (10ft) and its Shoulder Height is 180-210
cm (6-7 ft). The Tail Length of the camel is 50 cm (20in) and its
weight is from 600 to1000 kg (1320-2200 lb).

The
smooth coat is beige to light brown in wild-type individuals, with the
undersides slightly lighter. The legs are long and slender, with
callousness on the 'knees' where they touch the ground when the animal
is lying down. Though often called the one-humped camel, the dromedary
has two humps used for energy storage in the form of fat. The
under-developed anterior hump sits over the shoulders and the large
rear hump is found in the centre of the back. The upper lip is deeply
split, and the nostrils can be closed. There are long eyelashes, which
help to keep sand out of the eyes. The two broad toes on the feet are
able to spread widely as an adaptation to walking on sand.

Ecology and Behavior

The
ability of the camel to survive in desert conditions without water for
long periods of time is rivaled by none. The many physiological
adaptations the dromedary has even earned it the title "ship of the
desert". Dromedaries can glean much of their needed water from desert
vegetation, and can survive after losing over 40 percent of their body
weight in water.

When
water is available (fresh or salty), camels drink well - up to 57
liters at a time. Camels also have a flexible 'thermostat', and will
not start sweating until their body temperature reaches 42^oC / 107.5^oF. Nor do heating mechanisms kick in during the cooler nights until the internal temperature reaches 34^oC / 92^oF.
Besides saving energy, this physiological adaptation allows the camel
to "store" coolness in preparation for the next day. On hot days,
dromedaries will rest together in closely packed groups, with reduces
the heat reflecting off of the ground considerably.

The
mouth is very sturdy, able to chew thorny desert plants. Long eyelashes
and ear hairs, together with sealable nostrils, form a barrier against
sand. Their gait and their widened feet help them move without sinking
into the sand

Also to save water the kidneys and intestine
of a camel are very efficient at retaining water. Urine comes out as
thick syrup, and their feces are so dry that they can fuel fires.
Camels do not store water in their humps as is commonly believed. The
humps are actually a reservoir of fatty tissue. Concentrating body
fat in their humps minimizes heat-trapping insulation throughout the
rest of their body, which may be an adaptation to living in hot
climates. When this tissue is metabolized, it acts as a source of
energy, and yields more than 1 g of water for each 1 g of fat converted
through reaction with oxygen from air.

This car is a human made… But who created this magnificent creation, coincidence or Allah?
Allah says: (Do
they not look at the Camels, how they are made?* and at the Sky, how it
is raised high?* and at the Mountains, how they are fixed firm?*and at
the Earth, how it is spread out?*Therefore do thou give admonition, for
thou art one to admonish) (Sûrat Al-Ghasyha verse 17-21)
