No. As mentioned, Bactrian camels live in very harsh and cold environments. Dromedaries are much more common and suited for a warmer climate, but desert nights can be very cold. Bactrians and dromedaries are also commonly crossbred and then recrossed depending on what they will be used for.

Even Bactrian camels would find a colder climate that was even more than they could stand. That is why they could more easily migrate out of their situation than the Mammoths didn’t have the more moderate deterioration of their climate.
