You Give Me The Hump!

Let me introduce you to one of Chester Zoo's Bactrian Camels that are native to North-Eastern Asia. This was a particularly tired camel on the day we were at the zoo. This camel has undergone its annual moult and now just has its summer fur. It grows a very thick coat for winter.

This is so Priceless Steve. Boy does he ever look tired. Fabulous capture with amazing detail and textures. His fur look a little thin.

The creature to be made waited in line. When its turn came, God asked: "What do you want to be?"
The creature thought and thought and said: "I would like to be a camel."
God looked at it and asked again: "One hump or two?"

Therein lies the reason why. Your photo gives us a great example. Excellent post Caruso.

He looks like he's got a right hump on there! Never seen one laying down like this. Good shot.
