Ships of the desert, ahoy!. Camels in the desert, United Arab Emirates

Desert-dwelling camels have been central to life in the United Arab Emirates for generations, upholding Emirati heritage and customs. Camels, a key mode of transportation for Bedouins to access water and supplies, are invaluable in traversing the sweltering sands. These dromedaries have even been used as currency to fulfil various obligations, such as dowries or zakat, an annual charitable fee in Muslim communities. They provide nourishment; camel milk is a valuable and nutritious ingredient in many recipes. Finally, camels have successfully entertained Bedouin tribes and travellers through camel racing, further showcasing the versatility of these hardy creatures.
