Abstract

Camels have a fascinated mankind which are very well adapted to their native environment and can sustain life in hot, harsh and hostile environments like deserts. The dromedary camel is a best source of milk and meat especially for those areas where production performance of other animals is adversely affected by the harsh environmental conditions. This is due to its unique physiological characteristics that enable to tolerate higher temperatures, solar radiations, water scarcity, poor vegetation and rough topography. Camel has no competition with any domestic specie regarding feed and performance. They are browsers, their tall as well as long neck and legs enable them to browse efficiently. And due to these specified attributes they can browse that feed material which is beyond the approach of other livestock species. In fact camel has the ability to transfer those poor products into valuable food which can’t be consumed by other livestock species. Camels are of great importance, their virtues should be given ample consideration and it will definitely be an important addition to the food chain which will play its role in the food security of the world.
