Camels

IMGP3996

Some of the wild camels that populate the desert here. Originally imported into Australia in pioneering days to help transport goods and people, feral camels now roam freely around the countryside. Many towns now make use of the camels by taming some and running camel races. These camels were on the dry river bed of the East Leichhardt.
