What does a camel have in its hump?

Answer 1

a camel's hump is a giant mound of fat, actually. In a healthy, well-fed camel, the hump can weigh as much as 80 pounds (35 kilograms)! Human beings and most animals store their fat mixed in with muscle tissue or in a layer right beneath the skin. Camels are the only animals with a hump. The hump allows a camel to survive an extremely long time (up to two weeks) without food if need be. Because camels typically live in the desert, where food can be scarce for long stretches, this is important.

Answer 2

They store fat in they for a constant supply whilst they are in the dry desert. They could live weeks off the humps alone.

Answer 3

Many people think that a camel stores water in its humps, but actually it's fat. They feed on the fat, so that's why they can go for a long time without water.
