Camels have relatives that walk exactly like them--the llamas. Llamas also trot and run like camels, by moving both legs on one side, then moving the legs on the other side. Camels and llamas can cover large amounts of territory very fast and efficiently this way. Many other animals seem to walk like camels when they move slowly. Examples are giraffes, house cats, okapis, some horses (like harness racing horses), some long-legged dogs, cheetahs, elephants, and brown bears. Walking this way is called an "amble." When they run, however, these animals switch to different styles of trotting and galloping from the camels and llamas.
