Why does a camel move slowly when it is on its long journey?
A camel moves slowly during its long journey to conserve energy and manage its water resources efficiently. This deliberate pace helps it endure harsh conditions and travel long distances without exhausting itself. Additionally, camels are adapted to carry heavy loads, so a slower pace allows them to maintain stability and reduce strain on their bodies. Their ability to withstand extreme environments makes this slow movement an essential survival strategy.
How come horses get bits when being ridden but camels don't?
A horses mouth has a 'hollow' space on it's upper and lower jaws called the bars where a bit can rest comfortably. This area allows the bit to apply slight pressure to the tongue, jaw and poll (top of the head behind the ears.) A horse responds better to pressure in these areas.
A camel, though it has an area where a bit could sit, is a ruminant and chews cud which a bit would prevent or hinder. Camels also seem to respond just fine to nose pressure from a camel bridle.
