Is camel good eating?

Yes it is. We were in Australia earlier this year for a month, seeing the sights, riding the Ghan Train, Great Barrier Reef, Sydney, Ayer's Rock, Etc., Etc., Etc.

Almost all the restaurants (with the exception of McDonalds) have camel on the menu. It has the color, texture, and taste of veal. I would challenge you to tell the difference in a blind study.

One of our guides said that Australia is the only country in the world now that exports live camels. Especially back to the middle East.

You see camel tracks everywhere out in the outback. They and kangaroos are taking over. The biggest hazard on many of the golf courses are kangaroos. They love the easy grazing.

Stands to reason, I mean they are grazers. In general, and this is an oversimplification, vegetarian type animals can be pretty tasty, but carnivores are alot nastier.

Very interesting.

It’s amazing how some species thrive all on their own.

...then there’s the American college student!
