The true Camels (Came- lus} have the toes united below nearly to the point by a common sole, and the back furnished with humps of fat. They have canine teeth in both jaws—those of the lower jaw being specialized and different from the incisors—two pointed teeth in the place of incisors in the upper jaw, six incisors in the lower jaw, and eighteen to twenty molars. Camels are natives of Central and Southwestern.
