Inside Nature's Giants (2009)

S3E3 The Camel

The award-winning team from Inside Nature's Giants embarks on a new adventure in the heart of the Australian Outback, focusing on one of the desert's most remarkable survivors: the camel. While not typically associated with Australia, over a million feral dromedaries now roam this vast landscape, descendants of those brought by European settlers to assist in railway construction and exploration. With the rise of modern transport, these camels were set free to adapt to their new wild life. Mark Evans and Joy Reidenberg venture into the scorching desert to examine a camel, revealing the mysteries of its hump and the unique features like its flexible legs and elastic lips that allow it to endure such arid conditions.
