How do camels find their way in the desert?

First of all, camels have a keen sense of smell and are able to find water sources in the desert. Their ability to follow water sources to find their way, combined with their innate ability to discern directions, allows them to survive in the desert.

The secret of the camel's direction lies in the camel's own unique sense of direction, the camel itself lives in the desert, natural selection, survival of the fittest, in the evolution of the camel, the camel without a sense of direction has basically died, and will not leave the gene that will get lost. Over time, those without a sense of direction will not exist, and camel genes will be better, so today's camels basically don't get lost in the desert.

In the middle of the desert, camels can pass by the location of the sun. To determine the direction of the whole, so as to have a sense of direction to distinguish the direction, through the light to distinguish the direction is an important way to identify the direction.

Camels have lived in the desert for a long time, and they must constantly adapt to the desert environment, the fittest survive, the inferior are eliminated, and the camels that can't distinguish the direction are eliminated by nature, and the camel genes left behind can distinguish the direction.

The desert is the habitat of camels, so he is very familiar with the desert, and he can clearly sense the direction of the wind and the location of underground water sources.

Take advantage of the sun In winter, the sunrise position is south-east and the sunset position is south-west; In summer, the sunrise position is north-east and the sunset position is north-west; Around the spring and autumn equinoxes, sunrise is due east and sunset is due west. As long as there is the sun, you can use the watch to discern the direction. Read the moment in 24-hour format and divide the number of hours by two to get one hour.

Place the watch horizontally on your hand or on the ground, so that the watch is aligned with the direction of the sun at this moment, and the direction of the watch at 12 o'clock is north, and the direction at 6 o'clock is south. Immediately, a pole is erected vertically on the ground, the shadow points northwest in the morning, and the shadow points northeast in the afternoon, and the shadow is shortest at noon, when the shadow points due north. Make use of the stars Aim for the North Star.

First of all, find the spoon-shaped Big Dipper, and extend the interval between the two stars on the spoon C by 5 times, and then you can find the North Star in this straight line, and the direction of the North Star is due north. Use features to determine the orientation. Large, free-standing trees usually have dense foliage and smooth bark on the south side, and sparse branches and rough bark on the north side.

The south side is usually grassy, and the north side is moist and mossy. For buildings and mounds, snow melts slowly in the north, while in depressions such as earth pits, the opposite is true. The doors and windows of the larger temples in northern China, the main entrance of the pagoda and the independent houses in the countryside are mostly open to the south.

The northern edge of the forest glade is more grassy. The annual rings of the stump section are generally spaced at a large interval in the south and a small interval in the north. In the grasslands of northern China, there are many northwest winds in desert areas, and many snow dragons and salons are often formed near the grass, with large heads and small tails, and the direction of the head is northwest.

The camel can walk out of the desert, but it is a witness of life in the desert, it loves the desert as much as you love your family--- it is not that it can't get out, but it is unwilling to lose.

Because it adapts to life in the desert!

Camels can walk in the desert because the soles of the camel's feet have thick pads, which have the effect of preventing scalding, which can ensure that it can walk normally in the sand. There are also valves on the nostrils, which provide good protection from wind and sand. Camels also have a lot of slender hair in their ears, which are specially used to block the invasion of wind and sand.

The camel's hump contains fat, which is automatically converted into nutrients to sustain its life activities when food is scarce. It can survive for 2 weeks without water and up to a month without food. In addition, its body temperature can change with the outside air temperature, thus reducing the evaporation of water.

What do camels rely on in the desert to identify the direction of grinding? Scientifically, with the ears and nose and, of course, the eyes. However, the camel's nose is particularly sensitive, and it can feel things from several kilometers away, such as animals and temperature, and with these stunts, it can pass safely in the desert ridge.

It's still easy to find, it's in the middle of the place, just look carefully.

Extended Information: Camels are mammals known as "ships of the desert". The head is small, the neck is thick and long, curved like a gooseneck. Tall body with body hair.

Brown. Extremely able to endure hunger and thirst. Camels can survive without water for 2 weeks and up to a month without food. Hump storage.

Fat is stored and can be broken down into nutrients needed by the body when food is not available, which is needed for camels to survive. In addition, Luo Xiao's camel has a lot of weakness in his stomach.

Small bubbles in the shape of a bottle, used to store water in the sedan chair. Camels can be used for riding, packing, pulling carts, ploughing, etc., and are the most important for the people of the desert Gobi region.

An indispensable partner for geological exploration and archaeologists.

You give me a desert.

But no camels were left.

Just to test me and refine me.

I can walk through it with confidence.

You give me a storm.

But there is no harbor to settle on.

Just to test me and refine me.

Can you rely on it with faith?

Through that desert.

Camel for me with faith.

The oasis is just ahead.

The road is carved out at the foot;

Storms are staggering.

I'm still standing.

The harbor is in the heart.

A lifetime of faith!

Singing the song "Camel in the Desert", I closed my eyes and experienced the lyrics with my heart.

I felt as if I was in the middle of a vast desert, and I walked forward step by step, although I didn't know where the road ahead was, and I didn't know when I would be able to get out of the desert, but I walked forward with firm steps with faith.

Suddenly, a miracle happened.

An oasis appeared in front of me, as if beckoning to me, and a path was carved out at the foot of the oasis ......Singing this hymn over and over again, my heart was moved, stirred, and shocked.

This hymn, which has been sung countless times, now goes deep into the heart and marrow, and becomes a force in life, and with it comes a biblical word.

Ps. 65:11] Thou hast crowned thy years with grace, and thy paths have dripped with fat.

Camels survive on their usual stored fat and water.

Camels can be divided into dromedaries and Bactrian camels, in the hump on its back there is a storage of fat, when there is no food, the fat can be broken down into nutrients for the camel's body to survive. Dissected correctly, the hump contains deposited fat.

The metabolic water produced after oxidation is sufficient for the survival needs of the camel, and 1 gram of fat can be oxidized to produce grams of water, a 45kg hump is equivalent to 50kg of water, while a Bactrian camel has two humps. So even if the camel doesn't drink water and doesn't eat, the fat in the hump will be consumed, and the hump will get smaller and smaller.

The camel survives even if it does not drink water for a month, firstly, it has the fat in the hump, and secondly, it can adapt to temperature changes and regulate its body temperature on its own. In addition, a camel can drink 120 kg of water in one go!

According to research, camels are more than 10 times more thirst-tolerant than humans, so why do camels have such an amazing thirst-tolerant ability? It has been mistakenly believed that the key lies in its towering hump being able to store large amounts of water in case it is needed. According to the results of the anatomy, the hump is completely a place where fat is stored, and there is not even a drop of water, and in the absence of food and water, the camel relies on the metabolism of these fats to regulate.

So, the answer is fat.
