Ep 137 - Why Australia Has More Camels Than the Middle East

In this episode, we explore the surprising story of why Australia is home to one of the largest populations of wild camels in the world—outnumbering even some Middle Eastern regions. We trace how camels were first introduced in the 19th century for exploration and transport across the outback, and how they later became feral after modern vehicles replaced them. You'll also learn about their impact on the environment, efforts to manage the population, and how they've become an unexpected part of Australia's desert landscape.
