HANNA: Did your legs get sore between your legs? KING: I didn't ride it that long. HANNA: Have you ever ridden a camel? KING: Yes, I did once in Israel. KING: He's three years, and Lawrence of Arabia rode these kind of people. So you take the dried feces as you go along in your caravan, and you light it and cook your food.

This is one hump for a dromedary camel and two humps for a Bactrian camel. Remember one thing, for a person to have camels in the Middle East, and by the way, all camels are domesticated. They have little so that way the sand doesn't blast their eardrums or get inside their ears as well. The sandstorms in the desert gets real bad, the animal has two eyelids so the so the sand can't get inside their eyes. But the camel, Larry, can survive in deserts several weeks without water. They use them a lot for Christmas pageants as well as obviously for educational shows. And the camel is the oldest domesticated animal in the world, they say, the world, which is thousands and thousands of years. Tell us about this camel? HANNA: This is a dromedary camel, Larry. ![]() KING: We have never started with a camel.
