Camels are mammals that live in Africa, and Asia mostly in the deserts. They have a hump on their back. Baby camels, however do not have a hump on their back. Camels are capable of drinking 7 milliliters of water every day! They have 2 layers of eyelashes so that their eyes are protected from the dust in the desert. Camels can go weeks without food but when they do eat food they eat grass, grains, wheat, and oats. Camels can also go around 2 months without drinking any water. Camels are interesting because they can reach around 7 feet in height! Camels can also walk on sand good because their feet have 2 toes that spread when walking on sand so their feet do not sink in sand.
Gorillas are mammals that have some pretty interesting things about them that most people don't know about. First of all they're endangered species and some have diseases. Mountain gorilla population is very low. There is only about 700 of them in existence and they are kept in parks in Africa. They are herbivores which means they eat plants A gorilla can also live around 40-50 years which is pretty good. The last thing I found out is that some gorillas were taught sign language and can speak it well now.
