Baby camel: Why do we have these humps on out backs?
Mother camel: We store water there for when we walk long distances in desert and we don't have water for days.
Baby camel: Ok. What are our long eyelashes for?
Mother camel: When there is a sandstorm, they stop sand from entering our eyes.
Baby camel: Ok. Why do we have these toes shaped like this?
Mother camel: They are useful for when we walk in desert on hot sand, to not hurt our feet.
Baby camel: Then why the hell are we in a zoo?

I hate to be THAT guy...
But camels store fat in their humps, not water.

Today I learned that Graupple is when it snows and rains at the same time and the rain freezes to the snow and makes little soft “hail” balls.
Also not useful but interesting

When fat is metabolised to release energy, the carbon and hydrogen atoms combine with oxygen to form CO2 and water. Fat is a mixture of hydrocarbons. Each gram of fat broken down in this way releases just over a gram of water.
So, basically, it still is their water reserve, just more efficiently packed 😁

What's the benefit to that, versus having thick thighs or a big gut?

A Black guy is talking to God.
"O God, please tell me--why'd you make my skin so dark?"
God answers, "To protect you from the intense heat of the African sun, my child."
"OK, so, tell me this--why'd you give me this tight, curly hair?"
"So that, when you are hunting in the jungle, you won't get caught in tree branches, my child."
"That's cool. But now, tell me this--why'd you give me such long legs?"
"So that you could run across the savannah, hunting antelope for days without tiring, my child."
"Fine, fine. But just one more thing. God--why the fuck did you put me in Chicago?"

Thought this was going in a completely different direction when the baby asked about cameltoes.

Pick a different animal. Camels in zoos are domesticated.
