It notes most lived in southern areas of North America, but some made their way north during a relatively warm period of the last ice age about 100,000 years ago.

Miners in northwestern Canada have discovered ice age camel bones whose DNA is forcing scientists to redraw the family tree of the now-extinct species....Scientists had believed western camels that once lived in North America were related to llamas and alpacas common to South America, but they now have genetic proof that the animals are more closely tied to the camels inhabiting Asia and Arabia. But they had consensus!?

Goldmine - Golden Camels. My grandmother used to smoke them in the 1950’s. Then went to Pall Mall cigarettes. Her son and children lived on Pall Mall Road.
Is there a secret connection to Alaska here?
