Camels eat cactus!! But how? #shorts

Camels are known to eat cactus. They are specially adapted to survive in arid desert environments where food sources can be scarce. Camels have tough mouths and thick lips that allow them to eat prickly plants like cacti without being injured. They can consume various species of cactus, including the Opuntia genus, which is commonly known as prickly pear cactus. Camels derive moisture from the cactus pads, which helps them survive in dry conditions where water is limited. Additionally, the spines of the cactus can provide some protection against predators. However, it's worth noting that camels primarily consume cacti as a last resort when other food options are not available, as their diet mainly consists of desert vegetation such as shrubs, grasses, and herbs.
