The Arabic word for camel is 'jamal' which is derived from the word 'jamil' meaning beauty. A female camel is called a 'cow'. Entire males are called 'bulls'. Castrated males are termed 'bullocks'. Baby camels are called calves.
Camels come in many colours - even piebald.
They range from white to cream through to black although black camels are said to be untrustworthy and unpredictable. The Dulah forms part of the camel's soft palate, in its mouth. The gestation period for a cow camel is about 13 months. Calves are generally born singularly but twins have been known. Cow camels tend to leave their herd to give birth.
