Re: Anchient Passages

Actually, it's a little known fact but the US Army did experiment with camels for transport in the Southwest in the early/mid nineteenth century; some escaped and went feral, some were released. There were small herds, but they had mostly died out by the end of the century. There were rumors for years about a few remaining ones ....
