Mexico has camels?..................

[Calvin Locke]

Probably "retrieved" them from the US. Or they wandered South on their own.

Just before the Civil War, the US Army was testing camels out West for the cavalry.

At the start of the war, the unit was recalled, sans mounts, so the camels were set loose.

Supposedly, there were camel sightings into 1890s.
