A diarie that has a picture of a camel6/14/2023 Here we see the actual knee of the camel. Here is a closeup of the carpus of the camel. To the left in this picture is the carpus which is the equivalent to our wrist and the knee is to the very right of the picture. When a camel kneels down you can see that the leg makes contact in two places. Here is a picture of the big callus where the camel kneels. However, most people refer to it as the knee. This is technically not a knee joint, but rather is called the stifle joint. These teeth look like they would leave a nasty wound. I would not want to be bitten by a camel. This picture would have been a good addition to my post from a couple days ago: Big Teeth But first, how about a picture of the camel’s teeth? I really wanted to get pictures of the knees of the camel, as I knew that I wanted to write this post. Here you can see how the camel rests on the ground. Here is my roommate for the tour, Cliff, posing with the camel at Samaria. Also known as dromedary or Arabian camels. The camels in Israel are Camelus dromedarius. Of course, it gave me a great chance to get some pictures as well. ![]() She was off the bus and just had to ride the camel before we had lunch. The first chance came when we were in Samaria. ![]() We had one tour member that had a goal of riding a camel while on the trip. They are not a common animal here in the US, although I have seen them grazing in a field in Kansas many years ago □ About the only place you see them here is at a zoo or in a circus. One of the interesting things to see on our trip to Israel was camels.
