The desert ship, how could a camel with all its skills be enslaved by humans?

Can you think of an animal that can withstand harsh conditions better than a camel?

1) Camel is a miracle of nature, it can survive in a high temperature of 53 degrees and a low temperature of minus 1 degree.

2) In the desert, feet can stand on hot dunes for hours.

3) Can go on for months without drinking any water.

4) You can eat cactus with large thorns in the desert.

5) It can carry people or goods weighing up to 150kg for more than 100 kilometers in the desert.

Any of the above five characteristics of camels are a great challenge for most animals, so camels are miracles in the entire animal world.

The body temperature of most mammals, including humans, is usually around 37 degrees Celsius (98.6 degrees Fahrenheit). If the internal temperature of the body rises above 107.6 degrees Fahrenheit, the body cells will die because of the unbearable temperature, and eventually a large number of organs will begin to suffer. This is why when the internal temperature of mammals is higher than normal, the body needs to exhale steam (mainly human sweat) to dissipate heat and maintain body temperature balance.

But if the camel dissipates heat in this way, it is obviously very extravagant, because water is the rarest resource in the desert, which is why the camel's body has a special "arrangement":

Their body temperature is 34 degrees in the morning, and then, when it gets very hot, their internal temperature setting rises to around 41 degrees (105.8 degrees Fahrenheit), thus avoiding the need to maintain its 34-degree body temperature. A lot of water vapor must be exhaled to dissipate heat.

Therefore, camels can endure high temperatures ranging from normal temperature to more than 50 degrees every day.

Camels have such a control system that can adjust and set the body temperature. Even after "burning" from normal temperature to high temperature day after day, their internal organs will not suffer major damage.

Camel blood can be used exclusively to store large amounts of water

Including humans, many animals drink water just to quench their thirst, and they will feel a sense of enough to stop, but camels are completely different. They drink water like they are refueling. They can drink 130 liters of water in 10 minutes, which is equivalent to irrigation. Three full car fuel tanks.

If any other animal forces itself to drink so much water, the excess water will enter the blood, and then the red blood cells will swell to burst due to the problem of osmotic pressure, and finally cause a series of functional problems.

Then why can't the camel's? This is because camel blood cells have a special "coating" that helps red blood cells withstand higher surface pressure. Thanks to this special coating that protects blood cells, camels can drink so much at the same time. water.

A camel's hump is a source of energy

The camel's hump has a lot of fat, which provides energy and nutrients for the camel, and water to keep all the internal functions of the body active and maintain normal body temperature.

So once the food and water in the belly are consumed, the camel can still survive without food and water for up to six months.

The camel is known as the desert ship, its weight can reach 180 to 260 kilograms, and this behemoth with powerful vitality actually has no reason to be loyal to human beings like cows and horses, after all, human beings cannot live in the desert. Inside control their food.

In fact, on the contrary, such a self-sufficient creature has become very innocent.

It can be said that without camels, it is impossible for humans to establish civilization in the desert. It feels as if such a creature has evolved in the desert to serve human beings.
