When food and water are scarce, they make up for the lack of food by storing fat in their humps. And because of this, the hump sometimes dries up. But after drinking enough water, their humps grow back. They can drink up to 113 liters of water in just 12/13 minutes. Camels run at a speed of 25 miles per hour, but they can run up to 40 miles.
