The Oregon Trail of the Southwest | US Camel Corps

When the United States acquired the Southwest, it quickly became apparent that horses and mules weren't going to cut it in the desert. So the Army turned to a strange foreign animal for help.

[@BenjaminKibbey]

Hey, fellow vet here. I was PA, so I spent a lot of time outside of culturally-similar company in Kuwait and Iraq. The actual origin of "haji" as a pejorative doesn't have anything to do with Johny Quest or even westerners. In Kuwait in particular, where the third-county nationals who weren't European lived in conditions like they were back in the third world, the Kuwaitis called those migrant workers "hajis" as a kind of tongue-in-cheek insult. By people from the middle east, I've heard it applied to refuges, people from other areas or districts, and so forth. It basically in the approximate tier of that particularly distasteful word referring to the dampness of someone's back. Same kind of stuff came up in Iraq, and I gathered the term was pretty ubiquitous around the middle east. Western troops expanded on the usage and meaning, but we originally borrowed the use of it as an insult from the locals. Nothing like a good cultural discussion with someone from Kuwait or Iraq to make you realize Americans are absolute amateurs even at our most racist.

Through irony or coincidence, I've now lived at both ends of the US Camel Corps' history. Was born in Arizona, where Hi Jolly, a Turkish man hired by the Army to assist in their camel experiment, later retired and the corps disbanded. I now live about 15 minutes from what was Indianola. To my knowledge, there is no historical commemoration to them in Calhoun County, TX, but there is a monument to Hi Jolly and the Camel Corps by his grave in Quartzite, AZ.

[@ferrjuan]

Knowing Better camels were originally from North America between 3 and 5 million years ago they crossed the Bering land bridge into Eurasia. In fact the horse was also from North America it also crossed the Bering land bridge but both eventually when extinct in North America while their descendants continue to thrive in the old world. And another branch of the camel family developed into the modern llama and alpaca in South America. So Camelops aren’t really foreign to America.

[@ryanreilly664]

Something I'd never imagine I would love to learn about! Great Video!

[@PlainsPup]

Horses have a sprinting speed of 45 mph, and a sustained speed of 30-35 mph. Also, horses are not really foreign to North America. The same species of horse we have today (Equus ferus) was the one that died out some 10,000 years ago at the end of the last Ice Age. Horses were reintroduced here.

[@disorganizedorg]

I'm a bit surprised that camels didn't establish themselves as a feral species as they did to this day in Australia. Interestingly, many were used to build the rail line from Adelaide to Alice Srpings, which runs a passenger service called "the Ghan" in reference to Afghan camel herders that served a role similar to the advisors did in the US. Ironically these wild camels are often seen from the mentioned train, which undermined their use as pack animals in South Australia.

[@SimonNZ6969]

There probably just wasn't enough of them. I imagine a decent population would have no trouble settling the area. But it sounds like only a few dozen were set lose. Some might have been too old or maybe a lot were male with only a few females. Who knows.

[@Uberspanker]

I feel it necessary to point out that both horses and the entire dromedary family evolved in North America. They either left over the bering land bridge, were hunted to extinction, or in the case of the Llama/alpaca, moved to South America.
