I made that up on the spot as a joke as an absurd thing to do with a camel!

Ah well, you live and learn.

Just don't tell me that Elephant Hide and Seek exists or I'll have to do something drastic.

From that link...

>Only male camels can wrestle in these contests, and then only those born to female camels with a single hump (dromedary or “yoz” camels) or those with double humps (Bactrian or “buhur” camels).<

So, only male camels then.

Is there another kind of camel other than a dromedary or bactrian?

Also where are these camel that are not born of a female?

Well, you've got your llamas and alpacas and whatnot...

Well they're related to camels sure but not actually camels.
Isn't that like saying a sheep is a goat or a frog is a toad?
