Do You Want to Become a Camel?

“The others, fifty or so big camels and dozens of babies, follow in a close knot.” Pg.118

So you want to become a camel, eh. Well guess what, that is the topic of today. I don’t think you can directly become a camel unless you acquire some magic. But today I will tell you how to act like one. First you need to gather a herd, so go outside and find the few friends that you actually have. Second you need to throw out everything but the basic camel necessities (food and water). Third you need to find someone to take care of you like my owner Shabanu. Fourth you need to find you and your herd camel costumes to look the part. Make sure to walk the same way as camels so nobody mistakes you as silly humans. Finally create a language of camel noises for you and your herd to communicate. There you go! A five step plan for success on being a camel. Good bye for now!

The First Blog Writing Camel!!!

“Loping behind is Mithoo, bigger by a head than he was when we left, his legs still too long and flying out in funny little kicks.” Pg. 77

Hi! I’m Mithoo, and I am a young camel. I live in the Cholistan Desert with my herd, Owner Shabanu, Owner Phulan, Owner Mama, Owner Dadi, their Auntie and two cousins. I love my herd so much but all they do is shun me away (T~T). I keep trying though! Soon enough I will become apart of their family… Hmm, what to talk about… Oh! Please don’t tell the Owners that I have a blog!!! They will surely shut it down, also they might use me for money. You don’t see many camels that can write, do you. (If you do please comment below I would love to meet other camels of my caliber) They might show my skills off for money, or worse, sell me. How unfortunate that might be if that happens but I’m willing to take a chance. So to get to the point my blog is about…

Camel life!

Camel food!

Camel culture!

AND

Camels!

Well if you are interested in camels keep reading my blog! If not, your loss. So, good bye for now.

This is a drawing of me that one of my Owners’ friends drew.

Morning News-American Pharaoh’s Babies

May 6th

After American Pharaoh won the Triple Crown he certainly attracted a lot of attention for breeding. About 22,500 babies were born from American Pharaoh in North America in 2016. A lot of the babies share similar traits to their father, American Pharaoh: Mild temperaments, curious mind, and a strong body. These foals will certainly make for strong horses. Speaking of the foals no more then 20 of them will be competed in the Kentucky Derby. This relates to us because some of us like watching the horse races, or just like animals and horses in general.
