The camel is both "alive" and "dead" as a waveform of probabilities, until you open the desert and check.

Camels can't swim. But then, they don't need to, do they?

If you can't beat 'em, might as well join 'em. Camels are obviously here to stay!smiley - biggrin

China/Mongolia and Russian and Eurasian countries are the only ones with Bactrian (two-humped) camels while countries in Africa, India and Australia only have dromedary (one-humped) camels. No country has both types (except maybe in zoos).
