Both Dromedary and Bactrian are species of camel. Dromedaries have one hump and are found in Northern Africa and one area of Australia. Bactrians are two humped camels native to Central Asia. Unlike Dromedaries, Bactrian camels are critically endangered. Both species of camel have been domesticated although domesticated Dromedaries are much more common except in Asia where Bactrian camels have been a domesticated pack animal for thousands of years.
