Camels in Morocco

How does it use its environment to survive?:

It survives in the desert by eating plants, storing fat in its humps, and conserving water so that it can go for long periods without it. 

What can harm this creature or plant? Are we worried about it?:

Droughts, habitat loss, and poor care can threaten camels' lives. Even though camel rides can be a fun and great experience, it is essential to choose a tour group that treats their animals well. Tourists can also go during cooler weather, like in October or November, so the camels do not have to work in extreme heat. Small choices like these can help protect camels while still recognizing that they play a significant role in tourism and help bring money to local communities who depend on visitors.
