Rachel coincidentally ruins another desert creature and exposes why the vast majority of camels are actually grassland animals. This episode detours into evolution and the veterinary science realm to answer why prairies are probably the cause of the mass extinction of this North American (yeah) animal. Also: camels are weird. And they're not ruminants.

Thanks for listening to our weekly exploration of why grasslands are the best biome. We'll see you next week!

PS check out this cool paleoart of new world camels.
