Reality: No, this is not true. Some camels have one hump while others have two, but regardless of quantity, they serve the same purpose — to store fat. The stored fat serves as a substitute for food when camels are traveling long distances with limited available resources. According to Animal Planet, a camel can use the fat as an energy source to replace approximately three weeks of food.
