In this week’s animals for kids episode, Oliver and Lucas travel to the Agafay Desert in Morocco to have a fun adventure in the desert and learn about an incredible animal called a camel!
They go camel riding as they gaze at the desert sand dunes and learn all about camels for kids in this animal adventure episode.
Camels are famous for their “hump” on their back. These humps are not filled with water, like some people think, but they actually store fat!
Camels, found in the vast deserts of the Middle East and Central Asia, are famous for their distinctive humpback. They are known as the “ships of the desert” as they have an amazing ability to survive and adapt to the harsh environment of the desert.
Camels play a very important part in human history as for thousands of years they have helped humans to thrive, explore and expand!
They were one of the first modes of transports in the desert regions, as they used to transport people and goods across different countries and continents.
We hope you enjoy learning about Camels, the real-life superheroes of the desert, that have played a vital role for humans throughout history.

We are now heading to the Agafar desert where we will go camel riding and have a chance to gaze at the desert sand dunes.
We are now going to wear a traditional Moroccan scarf that will protect us from the sandy desert winds.
Look like dead a fufu, look like dead a fufu.
We like a girl.
Hello American.
Hi American.
Am I just wearing this?
Oliver you look like an Arabic girl.
I can't even see anything.
Oliver you look like dead a fufu.
The camels.
Are we riding the camels?
Yes the camels.
Hello.
How are you?
Why are the feet so big?
Why do the feet look like rocks?
Hello.
Are we both riding?
It's too heavy.
Isn't it heavy?
Hi my friend.
Out in the sky.
It's crazy.
But cool.
Camels are famous for their hump on their back.
These humps are not filled with water like some people think but they actually store fat.
This fat serves as a source of energy for the camel when food and water are scarce.
Camels have this amazing ability to tolerate extreme heat and can travel long distances with little food or water.
They can actually survive several days without drinking.
This made it possible for humans to travel through the harsh desert so they could trade and explore the world.
Mum we're going to try and spot a little snake.
Keep your eyes out for a little snake.
You look for the other side, I'll look in this.
Tell me if you see one.
This is fun but my thighs are hurting so much.
Mine aren't for some reason.
Camels have these large wide padded feet with tough skin almost like built in sandals that helps them to walk on sand without sinking in.
Good job camel.
They can even find their way through sand storms as they have these super cool transparent third eyelids that protects their eyes from blowing sand and dust in the desert.
They are truly remarkable creatures as they are perfectly designed to tackle the challenges of life in the desert.
Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.
Oh I forgot how to walk.
Are you kidding me?
I forgot how to walk now.
Thank you camel.
We hope you enjoyed learning about camels, the real life superheroes of the desert that played a vital role for humans throughout history.
