Cool Fact
Only camels retain the majority of their body fat in a hump, unlike most other animal species. If food is scarce, the animal can get by on the fat in its hump. A camel’s hump decreases in size if it is famished. The animal’s hump can even detach from its back and hang down by its side. The camel’s hump returns to being firm and plump after a few weeks of rest and nourishment. Contrary to popular belief, the hump does not serve as a water holding area.
A camel’s hump is primarily made up of fat. Strong tissue bands bind fat pads together to create the hump above the backbone. A robust, well-fed camel’s hump could weigh as much as 35 kilograms or more.
