The camel occupied a special place among the Arab man and they developed a partnership that helped both parties survive. This episode explores how this animal evolved from an animal that migrated from the Americas and then succeeded in inhabiting both the coldest and the hottest and driest environments, and how its physiological and behavioral characteristics helped it succeed in doing so, and how it was a lifeboat in the Middle Ages, and what it came to represent for Bedouin people and for the entire Arab culture. Even decades after his retirement in the age of engines and four-wheelers.
