Best Answer

no. only sheep produce wool. alpaca and llama fur might be called wool sometimes but it is not either

Another Answer

Camels produce hair, which has unique properties, as below. Why it is not classified as wool is unclear. Camel hair is used in the production of cloth, and its journey from animal to human animal is much the same as the journey made by fleece of the animals above to human animals.
