The Camel is the "Ship of the Desert".
The camel is often referred to as the 'ship of the desert.'
The camel being called the "ship of the desert" is a simile because it compares the camel's ability to navigate the desert to that of a ship at sea. It is not a metaphor because it uses "like" or "as" to make the comparison, and it is not an oxymoron because it does not contain contradictory terms.
Camels were called the ships of the desert because they were able to transport people across deserts efficently, without using up too much water on the journey. When you are riding on the back of a camel the motion is rolling and you lurch from side to side and the feeling is like being seasick and this could be a reason why the camel is called "the ship of the desert". Another reason is that the camel can carry a large amount of cargo.
"Ship of the Desert' is a term used to describe the role of the camel in the desert. There were/are many camels used to transport goods in the desert and, therefore, many owners.
