Bactrian camels’ native range is the steppes of north eastern Asia. They have two humps. The wild species is considered to be endangered as only about 950 remain in northwest China and Mongolia. There are probably 1.4 million domesticated Bactrian camels today. Dromedaries have only one hump and flourish in the deserts of north Africa and the Middle East.
