Camels are native to the dry and desert areas of western Asia and East Africa, and central and east Asia. The Dromedary or Arabian camel has a single hump, and the Bactrian camel has two humps. Their average life expectancy is up to 60 years.
A popular saying from the Bible spoken by Jesus is that "...it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than it is for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." (Matthew 19:24)
Andy Schlafly and Ed Poor both admit to enjoying carnal, lustful relations with various camels in the past.
Allegedly.
