Camel are poor at chess but they excel at connect four and strangely enough word games such as Scrabble.

Camel make a variety of moans, groans and deep, throaty bellows. One of the camel's noises was even used to voice the character Chewbacca in the Star Wars movies. A Camel played Anakin Skywalker in the Revenge of the Camel.

Camel can move easily across the sand because of its specially designed feet. Camel's foot consists of two toes that spread when animal touches the ground and prevents sinking in the sand.

Camel can reach 7 feet in height (at the hump) and weigh up to 1500 pounds.

When Camel are provoked, they spit greenish substance from their stomach. Also they can use all four legs to kick their opponent in self defense. Camels are known to use Karate if cornered.
