    Just like any other animal camels need to drink also. A camel just has the ability to hold a lot of water and go longer periods of time between drinks, but they still have to drink or they will die.

    A camel drinks about 60 gallons of water and so it can go about a few hundreds of mile before it needs to rest and drink another 60 some gallons of water. If it can't find any water, it'll probably die after a couple of days extended from the water needed expiration days.

    He learns how to type better like you should have done.

    By the way for all you who are saying camels hold water in their humps they don't. The humps hold fat.
