Are camels plentiful or extinct

Answer 1

Wild camels are extinct in their natural distribution in North Africa an the Middle East. However, there are thriving populations of wild camels in outback Australia which are the feral descendants of animals introduced from Afghanistan for camel train transportation in the nineteenth century.

Answer 2

Dromedary (one-humped camels) are domesticated, and thus in no more danger of dying out than cats or dogs. Bactrian camels are also domesticated, but the small wild population is critically endangered, due to capture and habitat loss.

Answer 3

This depends on where one lives. In Africa and in the Middle East, camels are plentiful, not to mention a highly regarded and highly necessary means of food, transportation, etc. that these people need. In Australia, there are large herds of wild camels roaming the country However, in Europe, North America, Antarctica, and South America, camels are not plentiful, because they are not needed nor useful for any of those who live there. But in Europe there are exceptions, like near Russia where some camels are used as a mode of transportation as a better alternative to the more fragile and higher maintenance-horse.

Answer 4

Camels are what we call in western society, useless. So in theory if you are located in the United States or surrounding countries or territories you have absolutely no use for a camel what so ever. so in short to answer your question camels are extinct and will never have a use and haven't had a use since the car was invented which was a long time ago.
