Are there two humped camels in the UAE?
Yes. The one-humped camel is called a dromadary or Arabian camel. (The two-humped camel is the Bactrian camel.) The Arabian camel can be found from Morocco to Iran, although seldom if at all in the wild. Additionally, there is a large feral dromadary population in Australia.
How much money does a camel cost in morocco?
Bought 2 large but somewhat older males 40+ yo (Becomes a bit hard to determine from there on) @ the Tétouan market for 22.000 Dirham + 600 Dirham (about $ 1300 a piece) for the middle man who know how to check their health, but by no means a vet. This was in end of 2011 and when we tried to sell them after 4 months we were offered 14.600 Dirham, guess we were paying their middle man now ($850 a piece), which we took on the 3rd day. I assume the real value must be somewhat in the middle of these extremes. Unless you're on the run from the law, or a plain crazy massochist, I would see no reason to buy one for any other reason than its meat, which you couldn't stomach after spending any lenght of time with one : the horror of the sound, sight (esp. them pissing in their own mouth) and above all the smell ....
True, but like a horse : it may be strong but unless it's a race horse, it won't fetch more than the price of the meat ...

What are the similarities between camels and kangaroos?
There are very few similarities between camels and kangaroos, beyond the fact that both are fur-covered mammals. They are also both grazing animals which feed primarily on grasses and vegetation. that is where the similarity ends.
Camels are placental mammals, and not native to Australia (although there are plenty of feral camels in Australia), while kangaroos are marsupials which are native to Australia. Many people think that the kangaroo can go for long periods without water, like the camel. This is not true. The kangaroo must have regular access to water.

Where did the 3 wise men meet jesus?
We assume that it was at Bethlehem. It was from, what we can tell, after the census because the King ordered all the boy babies under 2 years of age to be slaughtered. That would mean that Jesus was under 2 years by the wise men's calculations.

Which of the three wise men was the Morrish King of Tarshish?
The Bible does not reveal who the 3 wise men were, only to say they came from the East. It does not say one was a king.
Tarshish is generally identified as a city or town/territory along the western Mediterranean area or perhaps near Spain . Tarshish was the place where Jonah was going to flee to when swallowed by a large fish - Jonah 1:3.
Isaiah 23:1 uses the word Tarshish. ..."The burden against Tyre. Wail, you ships of Tarshish, for it is laid waste.......".
In Ez.27:12 it states .."Tarshish was your merchant because of your many luxury goods. They gave you silver, iron, tin and lead for your goods."
The 3 wise men came from the East. Tarshish was to the west. Therefore none of the wise men was the king of Tarshish.

CAMELS ARE NOT SUITABLE ANIMAL LIVE IN THE NORTH POLE. THEY DON'T THICK SKIN LIKE POLAR BEARS AND DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO SWIM. IT WOULD BE VERY IMPOSSIBLE. LIKE WHAT PEOPLE ALWAYS SAY DEMONS WILL ALWAYS BE DEMONS AND CAMELS WILL ALWAYS BE CAMELS.Yes, camels are omnivores. There is a mistaken belief that they are herbivores, feeding only on vegetation, but this is not the case. They are capable of eating a wide variety of foods.
